Since Skydiving I .....

[obelixtim 100]

I find it so uncomfortable on commercial aircraft to the point I have to have an aisle seat to prevent me looking out at the ground. I hate not having a rig on, and when looking out, every instinct is urging me to get out of the plane.

Its actually quite scary....I fly commercially quite a lot.....and I can't ever sleep on planes....tough on long haul flights.

Wierd huh!!.

My computer beat me at chess, It was no match for me at kickboxing....

When I see a plane overhead, I check to see if it is at a jumpable altitude, a type of plane I could get out of, and if they are holding a good jumprun.

^ that

I also look at the sky a LOT more than I used to.
And everytime I see a blue sky, I think to myself: "Damn, you could have jumped today, you idiot!"

And I used to fall from big heights in my dream... Now I'm just taking advantage of that, and play around in the sky a little

Haven't worn a watch in 13 years since AFF.

Haven't went a day without thinking about skydiving in 23 years.

Feel sorry for whuffos who deserve to know what it is like, but never will.

Have little interest in women outside our small community.

More of something I first picked up after flying, but I am no longer afraid of 0g or falling. Also, I don't have nightmares about falling down liftshafts, and I can fly in my dreams too.

...found that Ramen noodles is a dietary staple.

...learned many ways to live cheaply to save money for jumps and equipment.

...discovered the mental peace that comes with freefall.

...and like Grimmie, have met both amazing and idiotic people.
