    Oh there's so many, but the one that came to mind first was marrying someone I had only known for 4 months! 6 years later, still going strong!

    Yes, marrying someone I had known only 18 months. 21 years later, it's better than ever.

    Biggest risk?

    Having the guts to end my marriage after 13 yrs. Leaving the security of marriage for a life of the unknowns isn't easy, but sometimes it HAS to be done.

    But, I am far better for doing it. I met the love of my life and couldn't be happier.

    I am not a risk taker, at all.

    Probably insisting on a natural birth after having my first by caesarean. Not that that WAS risky, it is actually the safest option.

    My biggest risks have always been moves because it's always been under very unknown circumstances and with no family to help. My first big move risk was moving from Texas to Utah to go to school. I'm not the first person to leave home for school, but I knew absolutely no one in the state of Utah and I put myself through school without anyone's help. I had to depend on myself and no one else. I have a lot of good memories from college, but it was very rough too.

    I once peed on a group of Russian soldiers. When they started shooting at me I realized that although it seemed like a good idea when the idea came to me, it was not in fact one of the better decisions I had made.

    Intervened when a gal was being kidnapped. Charged a guy with a .44 as he tried to drag her out of a parking lot. Don't know how he missed shooting me. Pure luck.

    telling people in the movie theater to get of their damn phones. Talking to their friend about what they plan to do tomorrow is not a frackin emergency.

    Street racing.

    I forgot this. Driving a 9 second street car down the drag strip. Getting to sit in my dad's 8 second GTO when i was 12. Drag racing bikes when I was a kid, dragracing my turbo mustang, Snowboarding down a Double black Diamond run in Colorado.
