Wow. It's been a long time since I've last written here. That's no bueno.
I've often thought that I wouldn't talk about anything uber personal here. But I guess since I'm sharing my thoughts and/or views on things, I am anyway.
A friend of mine says it's a good idea to have small weight loss goals/prizes, i.e. lose ten pounds = go buy a new pair of jeans. I'm thinking that my Big Kahuna of a prize will be to go skydiving. I'm terrified of heights - for fear that I will fall. Within the last couple of years I've often wondered what it would be like to sky dive (and I'm not talking about doing one of those simulators). Of course I could very easily chicken out. But I'm still going to keep it in mind. A while back I thought to myself that if I lost weight, I would seriously consider it.
For obvious reasons I'd like to do it before I have any kids. Not that I care to die either way, but it would be a lot better for me to die if I didn't have kids than if I did. And I'm not gonna lie... the thought of crashing to the ground and breaking almost every bone in my body does not appeal to me, but it has occurred to me that this could happen. I guess that's why I haven't done it yet. It's risky. I think it would be cool though, to say I did it.
My other thought was to get a tattoo on my foot like I've been wanting, however the reality is that I haven't decided on the exact tattoo I want to get next, and truthfully, I'll eventually get it no matter what. So it's not that great of a goal prize.
I guess I'll stick to the whole skydiving idea for now. If I come up with a better idea, I can always change it.
