Usually there is a way to slightly improve the wording, or maybe there was a better metaphor to make.
That was a perfect post.

Now it’s starting to sound like nirvana. Nobody around saying: “Chad, get a job” “Chad, you can’t do that in public” “Chad, not now. I’m not in the mood” “Chad, taxes aren’t optional” “Sir, get down on your knees and put your hands behind your back”
After a couple weeks, my place would be tight.

Plus, it was sorta like going back in time 30 years, so it was double experiment.

or like, alaskan / fjord-esque islands?
I think I could do it if I didn't have to worry about freezing to death.
Tom Hanks go so lucky in Cast Away that he had a cave. IMO he doesn't survive that long w/out the cave for shelter.

The quiet, the solitude. No emails or phone calls? Sounds like heaven to me. Plus, I could stand to drop a few more lbs. I’m in.

But depending on how a few things here end up in the next few years...
I could srsly see myself selling everything, and falling off the earth somewhere in the Exumas running a bicycle shop, bartending, or working at a boat place somewhere. I've even thought about landing somewhere on the Pacific side of Mexico in some small fishing village, but I know shitfor Spanish.
Corporate life has sucked my soul completely dry.

snowed here every once in a while, I would go out in the woods behind the house with 2 matches and make sure I could still start a fire in the snow. A couple of times I used a flint and steel just to see if I wouldn’t freeze.
Not that it was very high pressure being 150 yards from the house but it was something
Now that I’m old and fat and nobody dependent on me, I’m more ambivalent about it
