English class was boring
Posted by: | CommentsI just pulled my old Hardy Boys books out for Talon, and found this in one of them. If memory serves me correctly… and it might not.. Mrs. Barrett was my 7th grade teacher for English at Evangelical Christian School (i know what you are thinking… what happened?! … right?) I do remember she used to live a block or so over from me. I do remember I had a thing for her daughter, Denise. I think I remember cutting their grass.

Blech!
Posted by: | CommentsIt is recommended that between 30-60 minutes after a workout you take in some protein to assist and help boost muscle repair. While walking through Walmart (not something I do often… had to visit the pharmacy…) I ran across these 'protein shots' They boast 26g of protein, etc etc.. 'ultimate recovery fuel'

There are two things in my life.
Posted by: | CommentsAside from my kids, there are two things in my life that can act as a little bit of an eraser for stress.
The first is skydiving. Nothing erases the tensions of a week like jumping out of a plane on the weekend. I am only a few jumps away from my certification, but until then jumping is still quite expensive.
The second is suspending. Funny that both involve my feet being off of the ground. A lot of people have asked me what the purpose of suspending is, and to be quite honest.. it’s rather hard to put into words. A lot of people that do suspensions classify it as ’spiritual’, but I hate to apply that label to it. I’m sure it means different things to different people, but for me.. it is one thing I can control in my chaotic life. Even that… I know.. doesn’t make sense, but it does to me. It is perfectly clear. You have to be of the right frame of mind at the time of a suspension. If something is off, the pain can be unbearable. It’s more than just mind over matter. It’s about being in the right place… mentally. I had three things on my mind when I suspended this time. Three things that I concentrated on to help me get past the hooks in my back… three things to help me get past the pain… three things that make me…. well.. me. My suspension is a very private and personal thing.. and while I did it in the presence of many people… it was just those three things and myself hanging around…
Mom, you will want to stop reading here. The link below leads to my Flickr account and the youtube videos of the event.
My recent suspension
Posted by: | CommentsIt’s something I have been wanting to do again for a great deal of time, but something always came up. As I mentioned in my previous post work has been getting the better of me lately… pretty much affecting everything. There are two things I have experience in my life that makes it all go away… jumping out of an airplane and suspensions.
I was finally able to get up in the air yesterday, and it was good great.
Clicking on the picture will take you to my suspension set on flickr. Some of the pictures might not be considered safe for work.. You’ve been warned.
I’ll write more on the suspension later.. and if you have any questions.. just ask..
