Space-Time.... 5 dimensions?

So I'm sitting at the strip club last night, getting a dance, and I start thinking about space-time. Yeah I'm weird like that.

Space has 3 dimensions, as we all know, length, width, height. Time is considered the 4th, as it basically describes the 'state' of space at a given point in time. The coordinates x,y,z, and t represent our universe.

But when given examples of the affects of gravity on space-time, it's usually described as a 2 dimensional plane, with large objects making a 3rd dimensional depression in the plane, representing gravity. Time is then introduced to help describe the path of objects moving along these depressions. ergo, 4 dimensional space. But there is no up down dimension that isnt described by gravity.

So if we make a 3 dimensional space, add time (4th), and gravity (5th), then a more accurate map is drawn. The 3 dimensional space is as we know it, time is abstract, and gravity would be described as as the amount of curvature at a specific 3d coord. Imagine it as a single point, with an infinite number of 2d planes intersecting at that point, but with a third dimensional gravity depression in them.

And yes, she had a rather, nice, rear end. Had some strong attractive forces to it.
