The Life of a Hermit

So some of you know that what I miss most about not living in MD is having space. I need breathing room. I need trees. I need to not have neighbors constantly buzzing around my house. It makes for very claustrophobic living. Plus I keep thinking I'm going to end up running over one of the millions of little neighbor kids who keep riding their bikes in the parking lot and darting out into the street.
Dad has been building a little bunker of sorts on Jackson Pond. For those of you who've been there, it's literally in the middle of freaking nowhere. His creation (which isn't done yet) will be basically one tiny square room with a dirt floor. Four walls, a ceiling, a door and a woodstove. No electricity, no running water, no conveniences. Well, there is a spring a couple yards away. That's kind of convenient.
Anyways, Dad offered me this little haven for awhile, and I've been more than seriously considering it. He says it probably won't be finished till late summer, but I'm hoping it gets done much sooner. What does it say about me and my current situation that I'm like "electricity? I don't REALLY need it..."
I've used a few people as sounding boards so far. No one seems to think I can hack it. Dad says it'd be a good experience for me, but I'm not sure he has any faith in my endurance either. He also says it'd be easier to live there late fall through the winter than it would during the summer, mainly because of the bugs. I don't disagree that the bugs are going to be awful, but I know my abilities well enough to know that I can be moderately self-sufficient in warm weather, and probably even live there through a Maryland or New Jersey winter, but I am not tough enough to survive a NH winter there by myself. I hate the cold on a normal basis, and don't think I'm strong enough to shovel my way out of the hut all the way back up to the road, I doubt that road gets plowed well, and I'm even less sure that my little Toyota Echo could handle it even if it WERE plowed. I'd have to either hibernate or starve, because I think I'd be stuck.
But anyway, here's what I've come up with so far; tell me what you think:

*No running water.
Inconvenient, but there is a nearby spring. As long as I'm willing to haul my own water, I can manage. I have a solar shower for when it's bright and sunny out, and I'll have a woodstove for when it's not. All I need is a flat non-dirty platform (or rock!) to stand on, and voila, insta-shower (just add water!). For laundry, I remember Dad had a little hand-crank one. It took forever, but it works. I'm not sure if he has his anymore, but I found where I can get one anyways. All else fails, I'll go visit the 'rents and borrow their washer. Clothes lines-- wonderful inventions. No electricity needed!
*Heat.
Okay, so this is kind of a problem. I'll have the woodstove and I'm great at setting fires, but it's the wood that's the problem. Scavenging sticks is all well and good, and I'll definitely spend a lot of time doing that, but I've never had to chop wood before. I asked Dad to show me how, and he said he'd do it for me as long as I carried it and stacked it. I think he's worried I'll chop off a limb by accident. Since that's sort of my fear too, I'm willing to go with him on this one.
*Cooking.
A bit time consuming, but I've cooked over woodstoves and fires before. Plus not all food needs to be cooked! I won't starve.
*Refrigeration.
Watertight cooler down in the very cold spring. I think It'd work.
*Lights.
Candles and kerosene lamps, lots of matches and lighters, and flashlights (with extra batteries) for if I need a quick night-light.
*No electricity.
Definite bummer, considering how attached to my computer I am. Who knows, maybe my life will improve by being unplugged? I know my time-management will. Besides, the only things I'll really NEED to have charged are my cell phone (in case of emergency) and my camera (a girl's gotta have priorities). I'm sure I'll manage to find somewhere with a plug for a few hours once a week. Maybe at work.
*Bugs.
Alright, this one I don't actually have an answer for. It'll probably be the worst part, and I have no defense other than bugspray, which I hate because it makes you feel slimy and smells funky.
*Bathroom.
Composting toilets. I hear they're the next big thing.
*Wild animals.
Luckily most of the ones who would eat me or Bailey (like the bobcat or fisher that are on the property) are nocturnal. As long as I have Bailey in before dark (it works with Rizzo, why shouldn't it work with Bailey?) we should be okay. That's the hope, anyway.
*Fear.
Not gonna lie, I'll probably get spooked there in the woods all by myself, especially the first few nights. It'd be better if I had a dog (don't ask why, but they're more bravery-boosting than my little kitten) but I don't, so I'll just have to get over it, right?

Alright, so what did I miss? I'd like the feedback, because I need to consider ALL the bad stuff more than the benefits, because I know it'd be hard to live there, and I have to realistically decide if it's something I could handle. No sense diving in without checking for aligators first, right?
