I am finally 25, I am actually glad to be 25 because i feel it sounds like a real grown up age. I am always worried of people taking me seriously because of my age, and for whatever reason I feel that being 25 I sound more credible.
I decided to escape Susanville and head to the valley to explore Chico. I made arrangements on weds to couch surf with this guy names David, and he gave me his home address. Well I called David after work and got his voicemail where I told him I was on my way to his house.. I got to his house a couple hours later, and no David. But his housemates were so cool, they just signed up for couchsurfing and never hosted before. They were so amazing awesome, that I didnt mind that David totally forgot about me. Around 11pm, David comes home and is totally remorseful that he forgot about me. But I was not complaining cus his housemates made me a delcious meal and totally made me feel at home.
So David and his housemates and I decided to head to downtown Chico. The rumors about Chico being a drinking town is very true. For being a small town they are not lacking on bars, and the bars are not lacking business.
We stayed out until the bars closed where we then happily and drunkenly walked back to the house.One of their housemates is out of town so I was allowed to use her room for the weekend.
Today Alison-one of the housemates, and I went to the farmers market, where we ate Indian Samosas, and drank Chai. Since it was my birthday I got a box of chocolates and a free half dozen carton of eggs-which i gave to Allison, since i dont have a kitchen.
I am having a great time on my birthday couch surfing adventure!
