Greetings From The Island

Well, as promised, I made the move to Victoria just over a week ago. And, as my brother promised me, finding a room in Victoria is a bit of a nightmare. I finally ended up with a place that reminds me of what being a young career girl in the '50s must have been like, except with more Ikea furnishings. I live above an older couple and have a wee kitchenette all to myself, and kind of do and kind of don't have Internet.

So, posting will likely be erratic until I figure out what's going on with the connection. Hopefully it won't all end with me darning my nylon stockings by the radio, waiting for the phone to ring, or whatever it was ladies with an education and without a husband did back then (bridge?).

Mom suggests that 'maybe you shouldn't be living there, maybe you should find another place'. I suggest going to Stain once a week to update this blog and to save me the time of actually having to call and talk to you in order to find out what is going on in your life.

Your Brother.

Sounds like something Mom would say. Honestly, the place is fine (AND SO CLOSE TO FERNWOOD SQUARE) and I could totally piggyback on their wireless if I asked. I just want to reduce any potential for friction, so I don't.

Oddly enough, I had planned to go to Stain tomorrow anyway... Great minds and all that.

P.S. Am "borrowing" someone's insecure and rather slow connection.
