karenmeal 0 #1 June 16, 2005 I had some of the coolest skydives of my life today and it feels like the night after my first jump.. I can't sleep, just thinking of getting in the air again tomorrow. Been laying in bed for hours brainstorming about new, interesting dive flows to try tomorrow.. Ahhh.. It's so nice to get a big ol' unexpected super-charge of energy and new-found motivation in skydiving. I was starting to get a little burnt out, but today (or yesterday I should say) brought it allllll back. Fabulous, I just can't stop grinning.. But I need to sleep so that I can repeat this tommorow! Anyone else up to entertain me? -Karen "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vt1977 0 #2 June 16, 2005 I can't sleep either. It's 10.30am, I'm sitting at my desk drinking red bull wanting to go to sleep but I really don't think my boss would be too happy! Vicki Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
karenmeal 0 #3 June 16, 2005 Wish it was 10:30 here, It'd only be an hour and a half away from another jump, but as it is now it'll be atleast 9 and a half hours till I can be in the air again.. hmm.. too late to add. Skydiving hasn't felt like some sort of crack addiction in a long time, but it sure does tonight! -Karen "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

karenmeal 0 #5 June 16, 2005 I've always wanted to try to imitate this video that I saw of Olav Zipster (spelling?) and Stephania (?)dancing gracefully while head-down. Finally got the chance to do it today with a very very awesome visiting professional skydiver. And I get to do it again tommorow! Who could sleep?! Yeah, seriously, it feels like my first jump all over again. -Karen "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeflir29 0 #6 June 16, 2005 I finally got a little bit of a nap. The power system that my AC is on keeps going out. I kept waking up sweating. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
karenmeal 0 #7 June 16, 2005 That always sucks, I can't sleep when its too hot... I took some night time drugs. Should be done going on about my day soon. -Karen "Life is a temporary victory over the causes which induce death." - Sylvester Graham Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brierebecca 0 #8 June 16, 2005 I LOVE that video!!! They are so graceful, they move through the air like they're floating instead of streaking toward the earth at ungodly speeds. I think it's what Travis and I are going to do on our wedding jump...That's so cool Karen!!"Ive seen you hump air, hump the floor of the plane, and hump legs.
