Returning to Civilization

I had an entire week where my existence consisted of walking, eating, sleeping, and pooping in the boreal wilderness. No problems at the shop, traffic, appointments, sick cats, telemarketers, junk mail, uncooperative computers, cell phones, etc. Now I am back in civilization less than 24 hours, and frankly it sucks. The only good part is being with Mrs. Jack, and having a hot shower. The rest of it freaking blows goat.

Living in the wilderness is for some, me not so much. I'd much rather having some of the inconveniences of life than be stuck in the woods for a week.

To each their own!!

My only problem with civilization is people. Can't stand them, at least in large numbers.

I'm pretty sure there is an exponentially decaying function that describes the IQ of a person dropping as the group increases.

How do you afford your Daniel Boone lifestyle? Seriously, I want it.
