I have not written in this thing for almost a year. It has been a crazy wonderful year, but that is another story for another time. Today I want to briefly comment on my recent skydiving trip with my mom and sister. I am attempting to post the video here for a friend. My sister wanted to go for her birthday in May. I couldn't go at that time so I got her a gift certificate instead for a future date. We picked this weekend and it came on fast. I can honestly say i was not afraid of the jump. When I thought about how it might feel I got a little nervous. . . .I could induce the stomach turning feelings just imagining the drop. The thing was the drop did not feel like I expected at all. My stomach did not drop. It just felt wonderfull to be so high up above the world. The actually feeling was more like riding a bicycle fast downhill while standing on your pedals (except a lot more wind hahah). I could feel the air rushing by me, but it was great!
We got to pick music to be played on our videos. They actually let me pick songs from my own personal cd. For the record, I don't actually think I am a badass. . . but "if you let me tell you what I imagine. . . . ." For about 60 seconds I felt like a million bucks. Worth every penny.

Cheers
