Great weekend, but no jump I'm back at work and the government is paying me to sit here and introduce myself to you, meanwhile daydreaming about watching the plane fly away as I exit.

Hi Alana!

Welcome to the forums after a long lurk! Sorry to hear about your injury; I wish you a speedy recovery. Keep us posted, OK?

Meanwhile, you can stay connected here. I was out of things for two and a half months this Summer, and did exactly that.

Blue ones backatcha!

what happened to you that got you out for that long?? this recovery seems to be taking an eternity and it's only been 2 weeks:(

Wow, we have a lot in common. I have lost all ability to do my work. I sit in front of a PC and a Unix box all day wishing I could be out jumping.

I called in sick Monday and managed to get in some jumps - 28 and 29. I'm still new.

I find that for several days after a jump, I love the sky, the clouds, the earth and everyone on it. Then someone at work brings me back to reality. Why do they do that?

What kind of internship are you doing? I'm a telecom analyst, but I am about to start a consulting firm with a skydiving bud! Do you think we will ever get any work done?

Words aren't real

haha. i think i remember doing some work when i got here this morning. wait maybe that was last week. hmm, probly not! all i ever do is wish i was jumping, i even tacked a ton of skydiving pics to my wall. even when im not at work, i cant jump (damn elbow) i'm noting something called a "nothing internship" it's really neat... i get paid fairly well to sit here and do this 9 hrs a day. i wanna fly!!!

I was deployed to Iraq. It felt incredible to get back in the air again. After 19 years, skydiving is as natural as breathing to me.

I really hope you recover quickly. Healing <<>> coming your way.

my hard work and tax dollars are paying you. not the u.s. govt.

I hold it true, whate'er befall;
I feel it, when I sorrow most;
'Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all.
