Armpit? Ear? I don't know. Someone please tell me so I can sleep tonight

Saturday...beautiful day (it figures) but had to take daughter to cheerleading competition. Today...windy and looking like rain.

Um...Bunge, weren't you on your way to work a few hours ago? Did the detour sign jump out in front of you? I'm fortunate enough to live 30 mins from one dz and approximately 1.5 - 2 hrs from 3 others. Life is good.

thanks..i needed a laugh.

One of the tandem masters at the dz I work at has a very twisted sense of humor. He'll tell a first time tandem student "If by any chance we become separated in freefall, meet me back at that shed, ok?" The look on their face is priceless. Another time he'll take a roll of tape on the plane and pretend to 'hook-up' the student with it, telling them it's very important to make sure it's securely fastened to their harness. The next time he may tell a student that his wife just left him and he doesn't feel like going on without her. We never know what he'll say next.

Thank you all. I never expected so many replies. Once again you've made me smile. Congratulations Monk, Skymedic and Tee - 7 years cancer-free!!!! Awesome. For me this experience has been a good one, don't get me wrong, I NEVER want to go through this again, but I'm glad I did in a way. I've learned so much about myself, and life, and what's truly important. I know I'm pretty tough and will continue to kick ass. I agree with the mental aspect of fighting disease..attitude is everything and that's why I had to keep laughing in cancers face. I jumped today. It was my "no more f-ing chemo" jump. It didn't go quite as planned but hey, they're all good!! Peace, Love and Health to Everyone!

Skymedic and Monk are incredibly brave. I didn't want to go through this once let alone multiple times. How did you do it? I jump mostly at Crosskeys. I'll be there Friday and Sunday this weekend unless I start to feel like crap. I don't have "colors" or even a jumpsuit, just jump in whatever I happen to put on that morning. Kind of the Little Orphan Annie of skydiving. I wonder what the girl who posted the "no fashion sense" thread would think of me? I'll be the bald woman with the daughter who plays on the creepers. Not many people know me, but as Kelly can attest, they ALL know Nikki. I'd like to try hanging from the bar of the skyvan. Any suggestions on "how to" would be greatly appreciated. A Chemo-Way sounds fun. A friend of mine has already suggested a "Boobie Boogie - a boogie for breast cancer survivors and those that love them". Gotta keep smiling - I love skydivers!!!

I'm soooo happy!!!! Had my last chemo treatment today and feel great. It's been a very long 6 months. I've managed to jump occasionally throughout it all which has truly been a blessing. Been a fly on the wall of your .com world for quite some time and I have to tell you that your posts have kept me smiling ALOT!!! Thanks for keeping me going.
