1) It's not called adrenaline anymore, according to a friend of mine who spends most of his free time memorizing Wikipedia. He would like to share this link with you: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/
2) Apparently it was too windy today for skydiving. We had made plans to spend a lot of money for a brief thrill at Skydive Arizona. As I pulled into the parking lot of my friend's apartment, I got the call that we had been canceled. Crappy... I got up at 6:00 am on a Saturday for nothing.
I was holding out hope that the adrenaline, er, epinephrine rush you're supposed to get from jumping out of a perfectly good plane would help cure my lack-of-connection / lack-of-motivation blahs.
But instead of this being me:

This is me:

Now I'm off to play some hockey. Maybe playing tough with the big boys will make me feel better.
Updated at 11:15 pm to say: I didn't get to play hockey, either. I was subbing for Pat's team because they were only going to have 7 or 8 players. 11 players showed up, so I was not needed after all. Another wasted trip. Today really sucked.
I did get to eat sushi with my NFBF and watch the Coyotes win their home opener, so I guess that's my silver lining.

We were wondering about the high wind factor. Better safe... I'm feeling your pain and resume work on Monday. BLAH. Vacations are so much more fun!
