I missed Myka! Nice to hear from her, hope it's not too much trouble when she has to kick her boyfriend out of her apartment.
I camp a lot and love the shit out of it. I'm not a fearful person. I live in the Rocky Mountains and my regular campsite has a bear living in the area - he comes through all the time. I'm a damn expert at the woods, but they are scary as shit! I've solo camped a few times and I barely slept through the night! Every damn squirrel sounds like a bear and every deer is ten bears. Forget about leaving the tent to pee, you'd better bring a bucket! It is NOT relaxing or introspective, it's just scary and stressful. I keep thinking "oh, I camp like every weekend I can do this by myself" and then a leaf falling on my tent gives me a heart attack.
What I'm saying is that Chemda is so cute to think she'd last a night in the woods by herself. Myka and Keith know her better than she knows herself.
