“Are you having a midlife crisis?” my coworker asked. 

“That’s kind of personal,” I thought to myself. But in all fairness, I did give them cause to ask. You see, just two weeks earlier I launched myself out of a perfectly good plane.

It all started when a friend told me they’d always wanted to skydive. The only thing preventing them from jumping was someone to go with them. 

Considering I’ve never thought about jumping from anything higher than a diving board, it took a lot of thinking to talk myself into going.
