So my house just got broken into

[Delphinus]

Hmm .. interesting. I've gotten that feeling before too, but you know what, I'm still going to try to trust people. And I'll still ask to see tanks ... because *I* know I'm not scoping out the place, and the only way to win trust from others is to earn it, and the only way I can demonstrate that is by just doing it.

I dunno... life in Calgary has changed a little in the last few years. Having been born here and lived my whole life here so far, I think that puts me in something of a minority and I think it gives me some authority on the subject of "it's not quite the same as it was a few years ago." I dunno, there are still benefits to living here though (I have to keep telling myself this, anyhow..)
