Scuba anyone?

I have a new goal. I think. For those who don't know, I ran a half marathon in September of 2007. It is still hard for me to believe that I actually went through with it and am still alive today. Seriously, I thought my last days were near. But after feeling the satisfaction of completing a goal that I had to work pretty hard for, I decided that I want this to be an annual thing. Not running half marathons. But setting goals and going through with them. Just wanted to make that clear.
I was at sports chalet the other day and noticed that they give scuba lessons right in the store. Actually the pool is behind the store. The lessons are every weekend for a month and then they take you to Catalina to scuba in the open waters. This makes me excited and nervous at the same time.
I'm nervous about
a. getting eaten by sharks or over sized fishes
b. drowning
c. current sweeping me away to where I am never found and have to live on an island the rest of my life.

But if none of that happens then it should be pretty sweet.
