Spring Valley....and the loop

This past weekend i spent in Spring Valley which happens to be my roomie's hometown. Id just like to give some background information on my roomie and myself. First of all, beyond popular belief we were actually randomly put together and we are like two peas in a pod. We were paired amazingly. Another random fact is that me and my roomie come from completely opposite backgrounds/ towns.....her town is a small about a fifth of the size of my town, including her neighboring towns. She is somewhat of a country girl and im a suburban or city girl. Going to her house and spending the weekend there was unlike anything i have ever done before. I live about five minutes away from everything she lives 15-20 minutes away from everything....and thats going 50 mph instead of my 25-30. So, the drive to her house was about 2.5 hours. once we figured out how to get on the highway that is. We got to her house and i met her parents and it was her moms birthday so we celebrated with her and then we hung out with my roomies friends and that was pretty much amazing. What did we do u ask? Well, they took me ghost hunting which wasnt THAT scarey...and then we hung out at her house and played apples to apples and other games such as that. WE also took about twenty kabillion pictures of our heads/ faces and liza dropped the camera on brians face and it was pretty much hilarious...ahhahah good times.
