It's the last day of my vacation. Thankfully, only two more days 'til the next weekend. \o/
This weekend (if my shipment of tuits comes in) I'm going to start a couple of Arctic-retrospective entries. The first will be the few weeks I spent in Pelly Bay, NT (now NU) as a teen, and the second will be the two and a half and a bit years I spent actually living and working in Hay River, NT. The first is one of those teenage magical stories filled with good people and education, despite the fact that I was desperately trying to sabotage myself in everything I did at that time. The second is a distinctly non-magical adult story with some good folks, some assholes, and me trying my darndest to get my life back on track despite a couple of disappointing upsets. So really, they're near opposite stories. These will also be my first locked entries, so ping me if you want access to read them and you're not already on my list.
