Help, Tumblrers!!

I love Tumblr for blogging, but sometimes I want to send someone the link to an old post I wrote and I’m having two problems I need help with.

A)  How the hell do I find old posts?  I can’t see a search bar on my home page, so I just end up scrolling down.  Please tell me I don’t have to do that every time.  Isn’t there a way to search my own blog?

B) How the hell do I get the URL for that particular blog?  There should be something I can click to give me the URL for just that blog entry specifically but it seems that once it’s up and gone it’s just up and gone.

Can someone help me with this?  I may have to start blogging on my Wordpress site.  I like using Tumblr, but if I can’t search and get URLs for old posts, I’ll have to move away from Tumblr. AND THEN I WILL HAVE A SAD YOU GUYS.

    If you get answers to A, please share! I have to go to my archive and scroll and scroll and scroll to find old posts. Or...
