#63.

K4713. And Mr. January.

I have these two friends from high school and this is how they are in my phone. I knew Moe (Mr. January...there is a longer story, courtesy of another of my best friend's crazy dreams) from church, our families met when we were around 12 years old. Katie (K4713...how her brother once wrote her name on a cd because he thought it looked like 'katie'. I just always thought it looked cool.) and I met in 7th grade where we had homeroom together...or science class? Either way, it was the same teacher.

These two people have always made me laugh. Katie has always been the kindest, most caring friend I have ever had. And also the person that I loved shopping the most with before seeing a late night movie. Katie also has this lovely sense of humor and appreciation for all things simple and enjoyable, such as sunny days, reading a great book in a cute place, and great coffee.

Moe has the craziest expressions, laughs, and reactions. He probably doesn't know it but he has encouraged me the most to be the dreamer that I am. It kind of started out with show choir and the encouragement just kept coming from there. It wasn't anything straight-forward. It's just how he is. Oh, and he basically lived with my family our senior year of high school. Plenty of sleep-deprived, embarrassing, crazy ridiculous stories. My poor younger sister was the victim of many of the pranks that occurred that year.

Katie and Moe spontaneously came to visit tonight (those are MY FAVORITE kind of visits) and we laughed over the stupidest and most random stuff. Cereal for dinner. Discovery Health viewing. Massages at sketchy places in the mall. The Glee Project. Reality TV in general. My parents.

Basically, if you don't have a Moe or Katie in your life, you are missing out on a bundle of snorting, silent, tearful laughs and clumsy, awkward, hilarious interactions that you just have to embrace.

This was during our first year of college. The Ronald McDonald hair was a huge mistake on my part.
