I feel ripped off!

Recommended Posts

This is the second time this has happened to me. I will explain the first time.
About a week ago I had a dream about skydiving. I was at the DZ packing chutes and hanging out. Towards the end of the day the DZO asked me if I wanted to do another AFF level today. I was excited and said sure! So I was going through the L2 dive (Recurrency jump, I didn't pass L3) in my dream and it was sooooooo real. Then it came time to gear up. Well, I go outside to my truck for some unknown reason and I think to myself, its cold. Then BLAM!!! Right then and there in my dream I realized my body was actually cold, so woke up and turned on my electric blanket! I was sooooo mad I didn't get to the jumping part.
The second time, last night. I had a similar dream, only this time I got my jump suit on, and then went through the dive flow. Then I put the rig on and did my practice rip cord pull! Then BLAM! It happened again. I realized I had to pee, (I have no idea what arching and peeing have in common, seems to me like arching and sex are very similar!! HIPS OUT!) Anyway. I woke up again, ripped off, and didn’t get to jump! This sucks!
The main point being, I haven't jumped since September 22nd 2001. I did my L3 and failed. It’s been so long that I will probably I have been packing chutes to make extra money, but the extra money is for jumping! I really need to get back in the air. I bring my logbook with me every weekend on the off chance I may be able to jump. I have been tempted to charge it on my credit card, but I am trying to get out of debt and not back into it!
Thanks for reading! Being ripped off sucks!
