I'm with ya on the skydiving and bungee jumping, SoG I'm all for having fun and throwing caution to the wind now & again...but mostly I'm just a chickensh*t
C'mon, do a shot of Everclear and we'll do a triple bungee jump. Maybe we can get in the Guinness Book.
I hear ya! I should have added to my last post that if I had two shots of Everclear, someone would have to be strapping the bungee sh*t on me and pushing me off the side, cuz I sure as hell wouldn't be capable of doing it on my own!
All this talk just reminded me of something. I think I even wrote about it here before. One time Chow and I were at Knott's Berry Farm and we went on the Supreme Scream. For anyone who doesn't know, you're strapped into a seat with your legs hanging out and it zooms up to the top of a tower, where you dangle helplessly for a few seconds, and then, WHOOSH, you drop like a rock toward the ground. Their website says it's faster than 50 MPH.
I swear, at the time it dropped, I truly thought there had been a machinery malfunction and that we were going to die. I think it made a noise or jolts you or something. And that's exactly the thought I had in my head, How could we have been so stupid as to put ourselves at such a risk??? I always used to roll my eyes at people screaming on the rides. That day, I screamed bloody murder. I've never screamed like that in my life. I actually thought I might have irritated the guy next to me. Chows says he was glad I was screaming, because then I wouldn't hear him screaming. He says he was hoarse for two days, LOL. I think after that ride, we had a funnel cake and slunk home to nurse our wounds.
Anyway, I think I made an automatic, unintentional promise to God that day. If I was allowed to live, I would never put myself in that position again. I'm telling you guys, I faced death that day.
Whew. What a catharsis. You didn't know you were opening up such a can of worms, huh, yankee?
I dragged my lazy as@ to a new movie! How about THAT?!
I wanted to see Precious, but today just felt like seeing something more fun and uplifting, so I was debating between When In Rome & It's Complicated. Even though the background of Rome would've been more appealing, I can certainly relate to the plot of the latter better, so that's what I chose. It was cool. I'd read some reviews about Meryl Streep's bad acting... It's BS, in my opinion. The woman never acts badly!

I'd marry Meryl Streep if I could. She's just phenomenal, I want to see all three of those movies.
