I have this fear b/c whenever I get a bug bite I get a huge welt. I keep benadryl on hand.<BR/>I am a little phobic about getting lost on roads I don't know. For example, my husband and I went on a three day trip by ourselves and he wanted to come back on roads the GPS system couldn't even find. I worry that we'll get lost, or worse lost and run out of gas and get attacked by bears, or stuck in a freak June blizzard, or something bizarre like that, and my girls will become orphans.Elizabeth-Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12215621448451413460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25138681.post-1151290520603415262006-06-25T19:55:00.000-07:002006-06-25T19:55:00.000-07:00I am deeply afraid of having a blowout on the free...I am deeply afraid of having a blowout on the freeway (and by "blowout" I mean a <I>tire</I> blowout, not a diaper--just thought I'd clarify). To combat this fear, I have purchased a special outfit (a mechanic's jumpsuit) to wear in case it ever does happen. <BR/><BR/>It hasn't worked.

My mom thinks it comes from watching that episode of Gilligan's Island with the huge spider when I was really young. She says I came unglued when I saw it, and that night I had my first spider nightmare. I sorta like that I can honestly say that Gilligan's Island gave me nightmares.Starfoxyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07338772996596104283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25138681.post-1151157297052390852006-06-24T06:54:00.000-07:002006-06-24T06:54:00.000-07:00Spiders.

I mean, doing something so incredibly stupid that somebody would say, "Boy, he was a real Einstein, wasn't he?" Something like leaving a gas stove on and open but not burning and then lighting a match to see in the night, or holding my head outside of a bus window to get a better view of something behind the buss and being decapitated by an oncoming tree branch, or chancing upon a bear cub in Yellowstone and playing with it until being snuck up on from behind and eaten by its mom. <BR/><BR/>Something like that scares me.A.
