Then I found out my wife was pregant and I had not secured a job out of the Navy. It didn't take long to get the job but then I had to worry if the new insurance would cover the pregnancy being a pre existing condition and all.
For some reason I let the new baby and responsibility stop me from any further jumps. I should take it back up again, There is nothing like freefalling and then flying under canopy.

I had a chance to go skydiving once with a radio DJ friend of mine. The whole jump was free too.
Had it all set up to jump out of a little Cessna type plane but I chickened out at the last minute.
I have no problem diving down 100ft with sharks but I'm scared as shit to jump out of an airplane.
I'm afraid I might piss or shit on myself.
How was your first jump????????
