I am giving up and becomming a Hermit

Life is SOOOOOOO stressful! I’m taking 18 credit hours and working 25 hours a week. I can’t keep up with my homework, or my bills. Things just keep getting more expensive everyday. I spend so much time trying to learn to juggle everything, that I never get to see my family or friends anymore. After spending alot of time weighing my options, I’ve decided that the best way to fix it all is to become a hermit. I will be moving into my freshly decorated cave tomorrow. I will be collecting non-perishable food today to last me through the winter and will plant a garden next Spring. Additionally, as much as I love the little animals, I will have to take up hunting (sorry Bambi). No more bills, no more job, no more homework. Just me and my cave.

Sounds like a novel idea! I’ll take the cave to the left and I’m going to look into some solar power :)

you should see if you can find a cave with a hot spring in it or something, then you could have water and water power :)

you know if you started out with a few other people you could make a little community and live kinda like the indians did

Nice idea country girl. A hydroelectric cave. The hot spring would be *very* nice. As for the community of hermits, Miss Enigma is my neighbor and you are welcome to join us.

Two words: Global Warming. My house would probably melt. Better to stay with the traditional stone structure of Hermit homes.
