Maggie jumps!: November 2005
http://maggiejumps.blogspot.com/2005_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 28, 2005. Honda Held Hostage: Again. Saturday, November 19, 2005. Last Saturday I received a call around 5:30 am from a police department. The message, which I finally received around 11 am said this: Hi. This is the police department. We just want you to know that your stolen car has been recovered. CLICK. How nice and non-informative. The car looks nothing like the Honda I used to know and love. It had been spraypainted blue, then black, like a big Civic-sized bruise. It was mi...The i...

Maggie jumps!: December 2005
http://maggiejumps.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
So Long, 2005. Saturday, December 31, 2005. I'm ready to scrap this year. Only three things - my great job, my move to a warm climate and my amazing trip across the country - redeem 2005. (But only slightly.). The rest of the year can go to hell. Never have I been through such an emotional tornado. And everyone else around me seemed to suffer as well. Heck, the whole damn world seemed to fall apart. It was 365 days of life's big bitchslap. I'm raising a glass right now to a much better 2006. Prost! Visio...

Maggie jumps!: January 2006
http://maggiejumps.blogspot.com/2006_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 22, 2006. Look what ten inches can do! Or, er . minus ten inches. Jason looks so hot after phase one of his makeover, when his ponytail was lopped off. And soon, you can read all about the entire makeover in the Palm Springs newspaper. Friday, January 20, 2006. I haven't been inspired to write much outside of work lately. I think so much has been going on, I don't even know where to start. Sunday, January 08, 2006. Wednesday, January 04, 2006. I've just been so frustrated with it lately&#...

Maggie jumps!: February 2006
http://maggiejumps.blogspot.com/2006_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 20, 2006. You know you should have eaten dinner when you find yourself at an L.A. club, ordering dirty martinis simply for the olives. You also know you're in for a long night. Saturday, February 18, 2006. I am the kind of person who consumes tofu and likes it. I gave up caffeine. I contain my speeding to 10 miles over the speed limit. I keep most of my partying on the weekend. I am generally a law-abiding person. But I teeter on the edge. But now I have to spend the night in L.A. So I'm...

If you see a 1994 white, four-door Honda Civic with Ohio plates and a skydiving sticker . Thursday, October 27, 2005. Did I say I had a big, exciting Halloween weekend coming up? My car was stolen last night. From my driveway. While I slept. Along with skydiving gear and my new digital camera - which is not covered by my insurance. I'm so angry and scared and sick to my stomach, I can't even talk about it right now. All I know is that I deserve some really good karma one of these days. Some might call my...

Maggie jumps!: September 2005
http://maggiejumps.blogspot.com/2005_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 29, 2005. A big part of why I moved to Cincinnati three years ago was the music. Bootsy Collins lives there. Peter Frampton too. The fantastic WOXY was on the air. There's a rich history there with King Records. And, of course, it's the city that spawned the Afghan Whigs and my rock god, Greg Dulli. What a rockin' town. So I'm really bummed to have missed this year's Midpoint Music Festival. In Cincinnati - and I wasn't. Boo Why couldn't I have moved just a few weeks later? Last night...

Maggie jumps!: April 2005
http://maggiejumps.blogspot.com/2005_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 28, 2005. I get the same 10 questions about skydiving so often, my eyes are about to spit blood. In the interest of my sanity, I’ll address them here, once and for all. QUESTION: How high are you when you jump? ANSWER: It depends on the plane and how high the jumpers want to go. Usually it’s 13,500 feet. In the small Cessna 182, we only go to about 12,000. Sometimes we’ll do what’s called a hop and pop jumping out at 3,500 feet and deploying within a couple seconds of the exit. ANSWER: It...

Maggie jumps!: July 2005
http://maggiejumps.blogspot.com/2005_07_01_archive.html
You Say It's Your Birthday. Friday, July 29, 2005. Four years ago today, I sat in a parking lot, sobbing in my own car. The breakdown was caused by what had seemed like a major tragedy. I called my boyfriend - an arrogant attorney - to come comfort me. Four years I have to live with this picture! I screamed to my boyfriend. "Four years of bars and clubs and applying for things and getting pulled over - all with this picture! But that's pretty much how you look in real life," he said bluntly. I want to sa...

Saturday, August 20, 2005. Originally uploaded by Maggiejumps. Oh my What a fun party. And, like the very best kinds of parties, the fun didn't even really start until 3 am. Going, Going . Monday, August 15, 2005. It's taking as much courage as I can muster to actually go through with this cross-country move. I just hope what I get from California will be half as golden as what I had here. Tuesday, August 09, 2005. Originally uploaded by Maggiejumps. A thing of beauty is a joy forever;. There were eight ...
