[danger_dan]

Sometimes things just scare us...but should they really...?
What irrational fear(s) do you have?
...Has anyone ever told you you really shouldn't be scared of that?

Walking over a large pedestrian + traffic bridge, where there is water underneath
Feels freaky with the waves below going one way and the traffic going another way at a nice speed
Scared that the traffic will hit the barrier where I am walking and plunge me into the water

When DH is away at school and I'm by myself for a few weeks, the silence of the house is a little eerie. (I didn't realize how much noise he makes until he wasn't there for a while.) I have to turn on music on, it is just too quiet.

yup
there's a girl on youtube who turns on a free e Book on her phone for background noise
she does her housework while listening to chapters of the book

^Love the Johnny Depp thing above!

I think they are pretty rational, but others deem them not - crawly things, heights - and the oddest one, maybe, that my son and husband delighted in witnessing only yesterday - me opening Pilsbury crescent tubes - they wait for the scream from me when it pops then laugh themselves silly.

Oh, and whatever it is that's under the bed that might get my foot as it dangles over (no, it's not the cats, either....).

The one thing that I am most afraid is getting in a car with someone that like speeding. I let them know and I do not get with them anynore (one time is enought). And that is my biggest fear.................
