Yesterday, despite the fact that I was 50+ lbs and 25+ years old than anyone else in the class, I participated in an aerial training class on the trapeze and aerial silks. It took some help to get my behind hoisted BUT I wasn't the only one that needed to be helped. It was the most fun I've ever had that didn't involve sex or food. It also went a long way to conquering my fear of heights.

I will tell you though that when you hang almost 200 lbs off of a trapeze, there will be bruises the next morning. OUCH.

    Woo-hoo! I wish there were places like that around me--I'd never come down (partially because of fear...). Way to go, canroadrunner!

    Xandi, your quote about well-behaved women is that exact quote on the T shirt I was wearing.

    That looks like so much fun but scary at the same time! Kudos to you for concurring your fears and doing it!
