  1. Lisa, is that taking or playing?? Mine are probably: reality TV rice Krispie treats Magic shell ice cream topping ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!!
  2. Are you sure there isn't something wrong with your nose??? ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!!
  3. Now, boys, where's the fun in insulting him if he isn't here to defend himself??? ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!!
  4. Just about exactly a year....and on my 74th jump....I don't seem to do anything too quickly! ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!!
  5. ROTFLMAO!!!! I needed that after a stressful day! ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!!
  6. So I guess you don't want to hear how I finally broke down today and turned on my air conditioning?? When I got home it was 86 degrees in here! ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!!
  7. Congrats on finally getting thru that! ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!!
  8. 1 : 0 : 0 1: Number of children my tax lawyer father claimed for me on my tax return (I have none......) Still no jumps, still sick, but at least I went to the DZ on Friday and hung out! ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!!
  9. Yeah....we've all probably had our moments.... I freaked out on my first 15 second delay. I was supposed to be using my altimeter instead of counting. Well....every time I tried to read my altimeter, I did a left-hand turn, freaked out, turned back right, and tried again. I had NO IDEA what altitude I was at. Sure I was going to die, I pulled my ripcord. My JM's version of the jump was that I was doing nicely controlled 90 degree turns and pulled at exactly 15 seconds. Solution for me......jump again.... I also used to have to watch at least one load land before I would manifest. I probably had close to 100 jumps before I got over that. So my advice....get to the DZ....tell your instructors what you are feeling....keep picturing everything going well....your feelings are normal! ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!!
  10. I was cleared to self JM after 19 jumps.... Similar progressions, had to throw in a couple extra 30 sec delays because I was unwilling to give up the radio. I liked Jason to tell me how to fly!!!! On my last jump with a radio I asked him to talk to me, so while I was under canopy he started telling me the story of Goldilocks. He thinks he's funny! ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!!
  11. Good for you! You should speak up for yourself and everyone who is being mistreated! When times get tough my mom always tells me that everything happens for a reason. I usually want to punch her, but in the end she is usually right. Good luck! ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!!
  12. The message that I want to sent to up and coming skydivers is that an AAD is not a tool to be relied on. Even if you have a perfectly packed main, a perfectly packed reserve, the newest and greatest harness/container, and a turned on, correctly calibrated AAD, YOU CAN STILL DIE. I also believe that spending my money staying current will help me save my own life when I choose to jump out of an airplane. By the way...I have my Cypres on for every jump. And I check it everytime I gear up. BUT...I don't rely on it. ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!!
  13. I find that I don't sing when I am in the King Air, but on the ride to altitude in the C-182..... I always sing something, usually a sappy slow song. I just love the beauty and peace of what we do. I just relax thru the ride.... ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!!
  14. Yep...Today is Marc's birthday....I will let him confess how old he is today. Happy Birthday, Marc! ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!!
  15. Interesting situation here at my house....I received mine, Marc hasn't yet.... The weird part is that Marc went to work all day....and I can't seem to find my Parachutist!!!!! ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!!
  16. I am here because I am still sick. I spent my evening cleaning up my house. Then I baked a cake for Skymedic's b-day tomorrow.....it is really cute. I don't know if it will taste good, but it looks kinda neat! ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!!
  17. Damn man! My arms ache just hearing about it!! Congrats! Is your coach gonna make you do it again? ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!!
  18. That is horrible...what a way to have an open, honest relationship!!! Although I do agree that sending a guy a "hint" like that is very tacky! ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!!
  19. I'm with them....I vote other....for Wings. I jump something else...but after Skymedic's awesome service from them and the beauty of his rig, and checking out the pin protection, I vote Wings. ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!!
  20. Well....right now I am sad cuz I can't drink....not while I am on these meds.... But...I am a huge fan of most Zinfandels (not the sissy white zin crap...the real stuff.) I like Amber Bock. My beach drink is a Mai Tai (sp?) My summer drink is gin (or rum) and club soda, twist of lime. ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!!
  21. Somebody will pick him up....he is certainly past his prime, but I think he has a few moves left in him! ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!!
  22. Seeing the sunset under canopy Sitting student in the Cessna Bonfires with friends The Cardinals The salad dressing at Pizzeria Uno's Maple sugar candy Christmas My nephews WFFC Talking all night with my boyfriend... ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!!
  23. Ok, maybe I am weird, but I hope that I live to be as old as the woman in number three and that I am still getting some. More power to her! ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!!
  24. Now that is funny! ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!!
  25. I am online cuz I slept all day. I have been sick FOREVER and now I am on a totally backwards sleep schedule. I sleep all day and am up all night. My boyfriend is currently swearing at his x-box, which is at least keeping me amused! ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!!
