  1. Definitely!!! We will jump together, sweetie. Alana, your PMs and my other female friends who sent me PMs wanting to jump at Chick's Rock are what inspired me to go for it & get recurrent before this weekend. I love you girls...and the guys, too, of course!
  2. if I HAD a million dollars i would fly You Two and EVERYONE else to atlanta... * Meli, if you had a million dollars, then I could come play, too! Lol. How sad I am to be missing you, J, Alli, B, D, Andrea, Chaoskitty, Ian, CCowden, etc., etc., etc...maybe next year. It sounds like it will be a BLAST for you all!!!
  3. Yes, that's what I want to do. The problem is that it's raining until Thursday! Ugh...I would have gone today if the weather was not so crappy... I'm worried about my skills being rusty. It's stupid...I know. I mean, of course I can fly fine, but will I be able to do skillwise what I was doing just prior to my injury...no. I will be flying a huge canopy, so my landings should be fine. I wasn't going to wait until the weekend. I am going to try to jump on Thursday or Friday when there will still be less people. Saturday, I will jump if I feel ok with it mentally. It's my home DZ with my friends, so I am sure that it will be ok. I went to my first boogie at Elsinore last year at 20 jumps, just after meeting the "A" license requirements, and I was fine with it.
  4. Lol...I don't even know how to ride a bike, actually. Cool...the weird part is that I am not really scared of landing. I am scared and anxious that my flying has turned to total poop...after all that work. I was asked to do some RW in the tunnel this week by someone whom I respect (Elsi LO) and who knows that I've been out for over 4.5 months. I am really nervous/sick about that, too, (performance anxiety) I don't want to ruin it for everyone. I am sure that it will be soooo much fun, though! Lol...yay! Btw, I['ve moved, Jeff. I will be giving you my new number soon.
  5. You're awesome, Kris...but you've seen my rig right? It is huge on me, but it cannot hold anything bigger than a 150. I will be getting repacked, and I will first jump a 170, then a 150 for the weekend, I think. (If all goes well, or I may even go back to a 150 depending on how it goes.) I WAS jumping a 135 with about 12-15 lbs of lead at my weight (97 lbs or so), but I am not going back to that for quite a while. I'll see you there, right?
  6. I feel like throwing up just thinking about it. WTH? I think it's mostly performance anxiety...since I have to do a coached recurrency jump. Oh Andi, I am definitely looking forward to jumping with you, again. The last time that we've jumped together was Eloy. Of course, I've been in the tunnel when you've been in the tunnel training with your team, but we'll finally be able to fun jump!
  7. I was going to keep it a secret. I am planning on getting recurrent before or at Chick's Rock. I just feel so lazy about doing my recurrency jump. I know that I want to fly, but I'm embarrassed that I'll be rusty. Not to mention the fact that I have no main and need a repack, so I will either be renting a big rig or borrowing...for the boogie weekend. I would go jump during the week, but we have poopy weather until Thursday. It's making me feel wishy-washy about the whole thing, but I know that once I do my first jump back...it will be heaven. I am not planning on jumping my new wingsuit or anything tricky. I will keep to jumps that I feel comfortable with...RW with Elsi LOs and coach friends. Anyway, I don't know if I am asking for encouragement or venting or what. I guess that I just feel weird that so much time has passed with me not jumping (about 4 1/2 months). I am not sure what to expect mentally, emotionally and physically. I think that I feel a little anxious. I was not expecting that. I hope to see many of the DZ.com chickies and guys out at Elsinore for the weekend. I will jump as much as I can. I just may be rusty after so much time without any exercise or airtime, but I will do my best.
  8. Although I was raised in the United States from 8 months on, the love of root beer seemed like an odd North American concept that I would never be able to relate to or to understand. After 33 years of living in the US, I still don't understand...at all. I will make a point of trying some A & W.
  9. Then WTH are you doing posting on here?!?!?!?!?! Jump I'm not...I haven't been online for days. I was checking my DZ.com e-mails for an event that I had organized last weekend using this e-mail address. I needed to get in touch with someone regarding business from last week. I just saw this thread and posted. This is the last one, I promise!
  10. I have no pics (and no way of posting them), Alana sweetie. I just moved too, and I am in the middle of a get away with my boyfriend. I promise to show you how it looks in person next weekend.
  11. No, but it's getting harder and harder to resist staying on the ground per PT orders. See my new sig line...
  12. June is a great month to be born! You new baby, along with your other children, are so lucky to have such wonderful parents like you two. I am so happy for your little family, Pammi. Congratulations!!!
  13. I think that your sister is so awesome for having done this. Congratulations to her!!!!
  14. Congratulations for the beautiful couple!!!
  15. Wow!!! Thanks for the info...those guys and Eliana are amazing!
  16. YES!!! This week went by soooo fast! I am posting at 2 am...and still have more e-mails to catch up with and faxes to get to...ugh!
  17. but then he met VSG... I know that you were joking, but just for the record...Brains and I have never truly "met" nor spoken nor spent any time around each other. We may have briefly given each other a "hello" and smile in Eloy (I'm assuming?), but we never jumped, talked nor drank/partied together. Skymama and I always left the DZ premises by 10 ish. I would not be opposed to actually meeting Brains in person someday
  18. Oh Arthur, you are so adorable. I will always accept your awesome hugs, and no apology needed, my friend. Your hugs, along with Michele's and Amazon's, are some of the best ever!
  19. ya they can gang up on us and bite our ankles. Watch it!!!
  20. I just posted my height in the poll... WTF? There's TWO of us? Hmmm...
  21. You devirginized her...and we saw it all!
  22. How cool, Darcy! I was at Perris today, but I left before I heard the great news! I'm sooo freakin happy for my Elsinore peeps! YAY! I ended up sneaking away to have dinner with my mother, but I should have stayed at Perris because Jonathon and the gang kept asking if I would stay and party. Damn... CONGRATULATIONS TO EVERYONE WHO WON A MEDAL!!! Also, cheers to the teams who flew their best and worked so hard all year.
