    The only thing that scares the living hell outa me is thinking about something happening to my husband or kids.

    Clowns, mannequins, puppets, and things that look sort-of-human-but-not-quite (like some CGI movies) can wig me out.

    Oh, and sock monkeys. I freaking hate sock monkeys.

    I don't have irrational fears so most of the things I don't encounter and unless they're in extreme forms I don't even think about them.

    - really high heights
    - being under water for longer than I can handle

    ....that's about it. I'd still jump off the roof of my house and go snorkeling. But like I said...extremes.

    Oh wait, I have one more. Stuff under the water that shouldn't be there - like ship wrecks or whole trees - makes me feel panicky. I can't even watch Titanic!

    (And here I thought I wasn't afraid of much because I'm not squeamish about blood and I actually like bugs and snakes and rats and all sorts of creepy crawlies! ROFL! I am more messed up than I thought.)

    Bees!!!!!! I literally jumped out my car once while waiting at a red light because a bee flew in my window. My car continue to move forward almost back ending a truck. Luckily the passengers in the car told me the coast was clear in enough time to avoid a accident. Yep I hate those bees!!! Pretty much I act like im allergic if anyone asks after I make a scene. lol

    I'd have to agree with the whole something happening to my kids thing. I'd be devastated. 2nd and 3rd runners up would be drowning or a fire!

    Clowns and any bee type creature.. I realize their vital to eco-systems and all that jazz. But in my experience, they're the a-holes of the insect kingdom.

    I have a ton of relatively rational fears - anything happening to my kids or anyone else that I love for example. But I have one really irrational fear that people make fun of me for ALL THE TIME...

    I am terrified of frogs.

    I know...completely irrational. Really, what is a frog going to do to me? Rest assured that there is a place that fear started and it has just gotten bigger and more irrational the older I get. I HATE the damn things. They give me the HeeBeeGeeBees and just generally freak me out...

    Rubber animals! Yes, I said rubber animals. I am completely terrified of them, snakes, spiders, roaches, any soft rubber animal. Terrified to the point of full on panic attacks so bad that doctors think I am having a heart attack. (probably because I am).
    I am so afraid of rubber animals that when my daughter was not quite 2 years old I left her in a store alone because she had picked up a rubber fish. I literally let go of her hand and ran out the door. My mom was in the next store over and I went and got her, told her what happened and told her to go find Brandi.
    When I was a kid my dad thought he would break me of it when we were camping one time. He put a rubber fishing worm on everyone's plate every time we ate and said that the only way to get food was to pick the worm up and put it in his bucket. (We could not simply tip the plate over, which I couldn't have done anyways cause I couldn't get close enough to touch the plate.)
    I went the whole week without eating anything. Needless to say, my mom was pissed at my dad! LOL

    I'll refrain from posting the picture *again* as it would be like the third time in a couple months; the thing I'm scared of is house centipedes. On second thought, I'll just go ahead and post it so you can understand my fear:

    house-centipede.jpg

    See? That's some scary-*kitten* *kitten*, isn't it?

    On a more serious, less grotesque fear, I worry about more sensible things like that something might happen to my child that I can't fix or make right in some way. Or, and this is a pretty irrational one, when my hubster and/or child are away from me, I worry that something might happen to either of them. Like death. It's not an overwhelming fear by any means, but it crops up. For whatever stupid reason, I feel if I'm with them then nothing can happen to them. (Yeah, ooookay then!) So totally irrational but there ya go.

    I hate, hate , hate those things! I have had several sleepless nights after seeing one of those

    I am afraid of spiders too!

    Of something happening to my kids and death.

    And I'm kinda afraid of mustard, I hate the smell of it and freak out if I get any on me!
