Story Time

[c9]

I've decided that I like audience participation. So everybody stand up, stretch, and get ready to tell a short story to distract me.

Tell me about a time you moved to a new city/town/village/hamlet.

If you've never moved to a new city, tell me about your city/town/village/hamlet. Why are you there?

I've just recently, and officially, moved to Fredericton. (I say officially because I now have a New Brunswick driver's liscence, and they ain't pretty.) Its a nice little university/government town. The club to pub ratio is exceedingly high for my taste, but you have to give the 17 year olds something to do don't ya? I like it here in all honestly, its quite a big city, well in comparison to Cape Breton towns anyways. Its nice and picturesque in the summer time.

I did move, for one summer to Smiths Falls, Ontario to work. I thought it was going to be a big exciting time, going into the city everyother day to drink and see the sights. Nope. The initial drive to my sisters house was quite troubling because not only did it take 1 hour on the high way, I think we did a mini tour through Kansas on the way. Only then did I realise, that I was living in the sticks again. Damnit. I went there for a taste of the big city life, but got Ontario small town life. C'est la vie.
