[21:07] armonde: well, I can guarantee at least 2
[21:08] ellicip: four seasons hotel i mean
[21:08] ellicip: seriously
[21:08] ellicip: my idea of ruffing it is staying at a hotel with no room service
[21:09] ellicip: i mean my idea of natural child birth is that I am not wearing make up
[21:10] ellicip: there is no need for all that outdoor, icky stuff
[21:11] armonde: so what you're saying is... you wouldn't step up to the challenge... the life altering moment where you truly have to provide for yourself, your worth not measured in money or belongings, but in your ability to provide your basic necessities, going to sleep every night knowing exactly what you accomplished in a very real way
[21:12] ellicip: oh please
[21:12] ellicip: i laready do that
[21:12] ellicip: i don't have to sleep oustide in teh cold to make it more real
[21:12] ellicip: let alone kill my own food
[21:13] armonde: I'd kill it
[21:13] armonde: you'd just have to clean it
[21:13] ellicip: lol
[21:14] ellicip: okay u kill it in alsaka and i'll keep threatening to kill lousy food servers
[21:15] armonde: you like fish
[21:15] armonde: imagine fresh salmon
[21:15] armonde: directly out of the stream and into the cooker
[21:15] ellicip: do u get a cooker?
[21:16] ellicip: or do have to make a cooker?
[21:16] armonde: yeah
[21:16] ellicip: and if the slamon is raw
[21:16] armonde: they give you some basic items, some foodstuffs to get started
[21:16] ellicip: does the suhi chef travel with?
[21:16] armonde: heheh
[21:16] armonde: I'll study how to be a sushi chef it you agree to it
[21:16] ellicip: listen you go live the experience in alsaka
[21:17] ellicip: but if u really want to test your skills, survival capabilities and feel lik u have accomplished somethin at the end of the day
[21:18] ellicip: you need to brave a 7th ave shpping excisuion with me
[21:18] armonde: lol
[21:18] armonde: I can't survive a wal-mart shopping excursion with Kerri
[21:18] armonde: I'd kill myself on 7th ave
[21:18] ellicip: then you'll really feel like you braved a new world!
