I'm so glad my wife reminded me that my skydiving Groupon would be expiring soon. Last year I was a little frustrated that I couldn't find a weekend in which my schedule and the weather would cooperate to allow me to redeem it, but figured I'd get plenty of opportunities this spring. Well, that hasn't exactly been the case, but the whole thing slipped from my consciousness, too. Based on my previous attempts to schedule, I'm of the impression that their schedule is completely packed on any potentially decent Saturday, so you have to schedule way in advance of knowing whether the weather will cooperate. It also tends to be pretty full on Sunday, though there's a better chance of getting in. But weekdays look way easier for availability, so today is the day!
I'm sure I'll grow increasingly nervous as we drive down, get the orientation, suit up, board the plane and approach the drop zone. Just listing those steps along the way are bringing a grin to my face!
I'm also sure I'm going to be both exhilarated by the jump and disappointed when it's over. I've had it to look forward to for so long!
