You know, I've only got 46 jumps in, but all my instructors say the same thing: The day you're no longer nervous at all before each dive is the day you should take up bowling instead. At that point, you're a danger to yourself and others. Nerves are good, they make you THINK about everything several times to make sure you have it correct in your head.

Holy CARP (the fish) girly! I step away from the computer for a few days and you damn near get yourself killed! Thank goodness for your Roy and Shannon. Geez, I guees life doesn't get much more exciting than almost dying from partying. Now my weekend seems dull by comparison. Glad you're okay, and good job Shannon and Roy.

Heh. No worries there. Once 7pm rolls around on a weekday (YES, even Friday counts as a weekday in her book), she's comatose. Trying to wake her up is equivalent to convincing Northern Ireland to "just get along" and tantamount to signing your own castration order.

Yeah, and I've been looking for some cool (different) skydiving animated gifs for my web page that I could use for links. I'm just not talented enough (read: lazy) to make any myself.

I was...jeez, do all my posts have to start with ME?? What the hell is going on here?? Yes, it's normal...much like every other skydiver has told you.

I was good, mostly, and fairly (sub)intelligent, but after I cracked my skull, I could see high school and parenting (the way my mother did it) for the bullshit it was, so I was a bit more unmanageable. Did I just type 'bullshit'? I must be drinking.

Dude, COUNTRY? Hmmm...well, I suppose you're still cool, even though I had to suppress a massive gag reflex when I tried to contemplate country music.
