  1. :0:0 Hurricane Ike's mess came up through SDD, so there wasn't any jumping while I was there. I did take my C-license test and passed!!! I only need 2 more jumps to have all the requirements. woo hoo! ~Nikki http://www.facebook.com/poe62 Irgity Dirgity
  2. My copy is highlighted and marked in like crazy. I know I'm a nerd. it's not that hard to read. I would rather it be dry and give facts than make a long winded beautiful essay with less than necessary wording. If the SIM is as big as it is now, can you imagine if it was written so it was easier to read? ~Nikki http://www.facebook.com/poe62 Irgity Dirgity
  3. Talk to Erika at SDD. She just did her accuracy jumps for her demo rating. I'm betting that she can give you some tips! There are a lot of great canopy pilots out there. The book Matteo made me read for swooping was very helpful all around with flight and accuracy. I'll try to remember it for you next time I'm out there. ~Nikki http://www.facebook.com/poe62 Irgity Dirgity
  4. I was looking at san marcos... might do dallas... trying to stay along I-10 (truck likes gas when towing.) You should definitely come to Dallas! There's always a great group to jump with there!
  5. I'm a graphic designer for an ad agency. I also do a lot of freelance work. I have two BA's...one is in art direction. ~Nikki http://www.facebook.com/poe62 Irgity Dirgity
  6. "Are you my mother?" ~Nikki http://www.facebook.com/poe62 Irgity Dirgity
  7. I had one we named "Tilt-a-Whirl" Anybody who saw it open (or jumped it) said the same thing...that damn thing always guaranteed one scary hell of a ride. ~Nikki http://www.facebook.com/poe62 Irgity Dirgity
  8. That's the best news I've heard all day!!! ~Nikki http://www.facebook.com/poe62 Irgity Dirgity

  10. popcorn, peanut butter, and honey on a bagel... yes, I eat the leftover popcorn too. I just like to mush everything together if I can. ~Nikki http://www.facebook.com/poe62 Irgity Dirgity
  11. It may be nine months of pregnancy, but it's a LIFETIME of things pregnancy does to her BODY that will be with her even if the baby is given up for adoption. ~Nikki http://www.facebook.com/poe62 Irgity Dirgity
  12. As a victim of rape, I think it's ridiculous to force a woman to have MORE mental and physical reminders of something so monumentally damaging to a person. Even after the baby is born, there are physical reminders left to their body that a baby was born from that horrible act. I'm sorry, but my life is important too. It takes years to get over something like that, and I can't say I ever will be. You can all say I'm wrong if you want, but it is my opinion. ~Nikki http://www.facebook.com/poe62 Irgity Dirgity
  13. Mine is about my first new canopy...and about me some days. ~Nikki http://www.facebook.com/poe62 Irgity Dirgity
  14. I'm with her...mine is private as well. I don't need my very nosey mother reading about the crazy crap I do on the weekends. I don't want my employer or coworkers on my page either. It's very easy for someone to click "add" if they really want to see my page. It's hard to explain to my mom that the blog I wrote doesn't mean pending doom (they usually have a close call from my weekend of skydiving). ~Nikki http://www.facebook.com/poe62 Irgity Dirgity
  15. :6:1 We did a sunrise jump this morning...it was BEAUTIFUL!!!! It was definitely worth leaving my house at 4am to get to the dz. ~Nikki http://www.facebook.com/poe62 Irgity Dirgity
  16. Where's the "I'll take it when I can get it" for the women??? I like it cooler, but heck...that's what the A/C is for in the summatime! ~Nikki http://www.facebook.com/poe62 Irgity Dirgity
  17. Out of respect for the owners of SDD, I would hope people don't discuss the reasons over a forum. ~Nikki http://www.facebook.com/poe62 Irgity Dirgity
  18. :3:0 ~Nikki http://www.facebook.com/poe62 Irgity Dirgity
  19. ...to prevent the dreaded bootie malfunctions, of course! ~Nikki http://www.facebook.com/poe62 Irgity Dirgity
  20. WOO HOO! Go Johnny! I guess that means when he calls us out on owing beer, we have to really come through...not that I don't already... ~Nikki http://www.facebook.com/poe62 Irgity Dirgity
  21. That's not completely true. I landed in mud up to my waist on my AFF level 2. I was Mud Girl for a short time. They had to hose me off. ~Nikki http://www.facebook.com/poe62 Irgity Dirgity
  22. ...at the same time? I think they might end up with paper balls being pegged at the other competitors by the end of that. ~Nikki http://www.facebook.com/poe62 Irgity Dirgity
  23. The other night, I had a dream I was a TM in Mario Land. I have skydiving dreams all the time. They usually involve me not being able to pull my handles and dying in a very real and painful way. ~Nikki http://www.facebook.com/poe62 Irgity Dirgity
  24. We have Tarzan. He landed in one of the only trees around. It was jump 13, load 13, and rig 13. ~Nikki http://www.facebook.com/poe62 Irgity Dirgity
