Oh the lucky diver below me, should I feel the need to drop my light. (hey,
after losing the scooter, what the fuck's a light?) I have to tell you
pelican enthusiasts that the dive I fired up my 50watt light was the dive
that I cursed all the previous dives I wasted groping around with my stupid
14 watt dimbulb. I had fun going back to all the in shore wrecks just to see
what they really looked like.

Spectacular hallmarks in my diving career (in order):

Going from pony to doubles.
Getting rid of the weightbelt.
Getting a drysuit.
Getting rid of the stuporwings.
Getting a canister light.
Utilizing staged deco and doing a working 1.2 PP02 limit.
Getting a scooter (boooo hoo hoo).

Each one of these events doubled or tripled my joy of diving and I regret
all the dives I did without.
