In Victoria, it seems that small 1.0 minds keep censorship alive in a world trying to be 2.0.
Sweeping Health Care Plan Passes House http://tinyurl.com/yasbbsr Still too many hangups on abortion, but at least a step in rt direction.
@hummingbird604 I signed up for that - I'll see you there, Raul. Looking forward to it.
@hummingbird604 That's very sweet (& generous), thx. But I'm at a dead-end here, either I leave or get a job bagging groceries at Safeway.
@NaomiDevine Or maybe it's the other way around (re. shallow grave)? Too little to live, too much to die? Whatever. Island DNA replicates.
@hummingbird604 Oh, I mean Victoria alright. I'd move to Vancouver, but right now Seattle (or US) looks interesting, too.
@KathySierra Totally agree. Came here as adventure, but need to realize it's not "my" place. Wld like to come home (US), actually.
@NaomiDevine Yeah, Victoria is a shallow grave. Its depth is measured by too little to die, too much to live.
I feel like I live in the city of betrayals. And disappointments. Time to leave.

@hummingbird604 I starred this. It's a great quote, branches out into so many things / areas...
In locker rooms: Women who blow-dry their long, unwashed but wet-from-sweat hair have no idea how gross they smell. Double yuck. Pls stop.

rt @timescolonist Olympic torch diverted to avoid protest, skipping several legs of relay in Rockland area of #yyj. http://www.timescolonist.com/Protest...
The #torchrelay point 132 (in front of my house) didn't happen. Sudden dispersal. @timescolonist says protest route @ Pemberton /Rockland
@timescolonist Really ticked off @ this (protest). Passing of torch didn't happen @ #132 in front of my house b/c of it, many disappointed.
Too bad: #victorch didn't pass #torchrelay 132 because relay had to be diverted due to protests just blocks away.
Oh, and ps: the helicopters are still / again buzzing overhead. Feels a bit like Apocalypse Now... o_O #victorch :-)
People gathering in front of my house (along Rockland), awaiting #torchrelay. Think I'll take my glass outside & join them... #victorch
Lots of helicopter noises overhead: Victoria is buzzing with Olympic Torch Arrival Fever #victorch
