I was born in Anchorage, Alaska but migrated to California when I was three years old (and before you ask, yes, I made the journey solo—I’ve always been a very industrious individual). Eager to reacquaint myself with Alaskan culture, I started watching Northern Exposure.
Ode to Ed Chigliak


Oh, Ed Chigliak, you blue-eyed Indian. You are my dreamboat.
I wish to run my hands through thine floppy 90s hair.
How I yearn to snuggle up to ye on an Alaskan night that lasts for days, to press my nose against thine ubiquitous leather jacket, to sniff. Aye, I will give thine jacket a thorough sniffing.

We shall eat cheeseburgers at The Brick and discuss'th the films of Peter Bogdanovich.

You will tell me about thine shaman lessons,

and I shall grow'th bored for a time.

But then we shall eat several more cheeseburgers, continue our Bogdanovich conversation from earlier, and alas, I shall smile at ye once again, Ed Chigliak, my dreamboat, my blue-eyed Indian.

Aww. I just discovered your blog today and am reading older posts. I love Ed, too! He's my second favorite, after Joel. (yeah I know, but you have to love Joel! He's so short and cute.)
Ed Chigliak is indeed a dreamboat. I'll fight you for him. Paper, rocks, scissors.
Glad to see that other people like him as much as I do. :) Ed's a doll. <3
I'm posting here long after the fact, to say that I'm re-watching NORTHERN EXPOSURE for the first time since the 90s and Ed is bloody gooorgeous!! Total dreamboat for sure. hehe
