Diving Dry

I know that I am opening myself up to get a real flaming from some of you divers. I have decided that I don't care and am still going to post this question:

How do you dive with a drysuit?

Go ahead, let me have it. I am not taking a class. I am going to my neighbors pool tomorrow and next weekend off the boat I go.

I have talked to several people who dive dry and gotten a wealth of info, plus all of the online research that I can find. The drysuit even had instructions with it.

I realize that I know most of the initial info needed, but want to make sure that I am not missing any vital info.

I understand purging before diving, venting for ascent, how to deal with ankles full of air, and added bouyancy issues.

My first dive will be next to a shot line that I can grab if my ascent gets out of control.

OK, go ahead and give me hell. I will still appreciate any and all pertinant drysuit diving information.
