Name That Fear

Tweet

Almost all of us (if not all of us) are afraid of something. Weither it is snakes, or curtains. Who knows?! Anything is possible. I am scared of mice, snakes, spiders, and somewhat scared of heights. I also have a couple stories to go with that. I told one of my mice stories in a comment, so I'm going to tell a different one here. It wasn't that long ago, and for some reason we had a mouse that wouldn't leave. No matter what we put out to get rid of it, the darn thing survived. I was getting ready to throw something in the trash when the darn mouse ran by me. In a flash I managed to jump and stand on my chair freaking out until it was gone. I even left my daughter in the middle of the living room not knowing what the heck was wrong with mommy. I think I stayed in the chair, feet up, for atleast a half hour. This one is about a snake. It was a long time ago. Knowing my extreme fear of snakes, you wouldn't imagine my surprise when (after I'd just got mowing the lawn) I found the headless body of a grass snake in the front yard. It was kind of creepy, but it was creepier to think about the fact that I might have stepped on it. That was the worst feeling I'd ever felt. Luckily I don't have any real spider or heights stories. I hope I won't have any at any time either. Now it's your turn. Do you have a fear? Does it have a story behind it/to go with it? I want to hear it!
