Living in Victoria, you learn some things about the town you call home. For instance, the trash guy always leaves my can in the middle of the street, the traffic light on the corner before work is exactly 90 seconds long, the greasy hamburger stand is always on the move, and of course, anytime something new comes here, the whole community rushes to check it out.
