I relearned a lesson. The fact that I have REALLY great friends and sometimes the really special ones come out of nowhere.

I learned that whenever the weather looks good enough to do 5 jumps, it isn't.

I learned that my choice to WAIT to drink after the St. Patty's Parade was the wise one.
3 1/2 hrs of having to go to the bathroom was the OTHER guys' problem...not mine

...with my newbie spotting skills, I probably shouldn't be the first one out on the first load of a day where the uppers are forecast at 50+ (and we think that was underestimated).

I suppose I should clarify - all three jumpers made it back safely, and there were good outs on our return path. Even if I'd gotten the spot right based on our best guess plan back at the DZ, it still would have been short. Uppers were booking!

For the love of God why?

I learned that trying out a friend's wingsuit can make for a very expensive jump.

Cause...It was cold, I was drunk, and the jeans would NOT stay up..I think that's part of the reason I am sick now!
