Need some good driving 600km in the Yukon Winter...
recommendations, please?
Driving with a cat?
I have to drive 6 hours north. Any tips? Do they need a litter box or can they hold it? IN a kennel? Keep in mind it will be cold as f*ck outside. I
I also have my dog, so I guess the cat would have to go in a kennel. I’ve never driven longer than 30 minutes with a cat in the car, suggestions welcome.

Yukon mail is screwy

For the record, I still recommend post secondary educations for surgeons, nuk-u-lur physicians and hair stylists working on my hair.

Don’t worry 7/10 of my ex boyfriends will attest that I’m not a total psycho. And it doesn’t matter if I don’t know you all besties. It’s even better that way. Trust.

It's Only A Northern Song
Still no snow tires (they had the wrong size) but they assure me they are coming tomorrow. I slid in my car and got stuck in a three foot snow bank yesterday outside the Old Log Church, and five people dug me out, including one 60 year old woman. One older guy helping looked like he fell over, and he went “Oh!, Oh!” And I said, “Oh my god, did you fall?” and he said...
Was just talking with another Tumblrer
about the lack of idea and copyright sourcing on this platform, and the Internet in general, and it occured to me that my favourite posts (absent the occasional cat or beautiful photo) are the ones that explain a source of inspiration.
So, without further ado, here’s one of my favourite articles ever, in which David Bow explains why 12 of his favourite songs (of his own) are his...

Here’s an excerpt of an essay by Chuck Klosterman about interviewing him. The whole story isn’t available, but as I recall from the book he goes on to say he got all these plaudits for the profile he ended up writing, when deep in in his heart he knew he could have written it without having ever met or talked to the man.
I hate to cite Chuck Klosterman for anything, but it’s a...

RE: the article and the omnipresence of ” Hey Soul Sister” .
Where I live, it’s still “I’m Yours” by Jason Mraz.
You know, where I live. IN 2008.
We should change our slogan to The Yukon: where the cold keeps stale things fresh.
To be fair, “I’m Yours” and “Hey Soul Sister” share the same DNA.
And now I have “Runaway...

The Frye Dream Is Dead
Apparently they’ll only sell these bad boys to Americans. Jen, you’ll just have to give me yours. I assume they’re in my size? Of course they are. I’ll just spend my imaginary $348 US that I didn’t have to begin with on yellow cake uranium. Or, more likely, yellow cake. Only three more days without sugar!!!!
THESE TIRES BETTER BE AWESOME And life-save-y.
Your postcards are in the mail as of today
200 of them! May have got carried away :)
