I'm...not afraid of anything, really. I may not like some things but fear for some reason is not an emotion I seem to have.

Yeah I never want to be disabled.

I especially would hate to be horrible maimed or disfigured b/c I don't think I could stand people staring at me. Or deliberately avoiding looking at me. Ugh I don't think I could handle that!! Plus if I wasn't already married I probably never would be...that would be so sad.

I'm deathly afraid of spiders
Deep water
Heights
People that look like they're part of a gang
Living on my own, like Hamster said
Something happening to my house and my pets dying
My family dying permaturely
Disabilities and disfigurement

That's all I can think of that I'm scared of.

The Pitch black Dark. Can't see anything. Nope won't ever ctach me going caving without proper light sources!

Boogeymen / Night Terrors / cridder things in teh dark ( again wiht the dark ).

Unknown elements that could be painful.

Needles ( the sting they make ).

Tractor and trailer accidents.

Car wrecks ( like spectacular ones, not little bumps or fender benders )- Think Final Destination.

Falling ( not heights, not hitting the ground.., falling ) So yeah, rollar coasters scare the poop otta me.., but I still ride them when I can. ;) hehe.

I can tell you I don't have a fear on that. If I did, I wouldn't be hauling gasoline. :o

*Laceration (being CUT)

*Falling (...the sensation of falling puts my body into intense panic. It is not a fear of what I am afraid will happen...it is an instinctive terror that I cant' seem to turn off.)

*Pulbic Humiliation.

*Loss of any significant part of myself. (Eyesight, Hearing, Hands, Legs, etc.)

*Unrepayable Moral or Financial Debt.

...that's about it.


I'm stupidly fearless in most other respects.

I'm facinated by the Dark...(I will often wander about, nearly blind in near or total darkness...just for fun.)...and I Love PINK.

(... I have no problems with spiders. Spiders in ones attic or basement catch, eat, and otherwise get rid of the other Nastier bugs that can get to you, like parasites and centepedes (which are poisonous). ...spiders are my allies, so long as they stay in the dark, damp corners and off of me and my stuff. )

I'm afraid of being killed by a horse. Which sucks since I live on a horse farm and work with horses!

I'm afraid of bees. I used to be really really afraid and would literally run away from them. Occasionaly I spaz out when bees are near me. I'm sure that looks incredibly funny to a bystander.

oddest fear ever: I used to be on a swim team... and occasionaly we'd have to swim in the deep end. Well, I could not look down at the deep end whilst I was swimming because it made me nervous. Seriously, I have no idea why the deep end would bother someone who could SWIM very well!!! Oddly enough, I didn't mind diving down to the bottom... but I couldn't swim across it if I could see it. Hence I lost a lot of races because my eyes were closed!!!!

Oh my God! It's a kitten! Get it away from me!

I used to be terribly arachnophobic. As I got older, it sort-of subsided, but I'd still have nightmares about black widow spiders specifically.

So, I did a little research. Most black widow bites are not lethal; they're painful for a few days because of a neurotoxin, but they go away. The people who die from them are usually either frail elderly or young children. The same can be said of most non-venomous insect or spider bites, or indeed other forms of skin infections--most often caused by ingrown hairs and the like.

Black widows are not aggressive; if you poke at one, it will back away; it takes repeated poking to get bitten, or cornering them in such a way that they have to to survive, such as when one builds a web inside a shoe.

So, being afraid of black widow spiders is logically similar to being afraid of a stray kitten. Both have the potential to kill, but both probably won't.

-Spiders+bees+most bugs (Except worms, ants,caterpillars, and butterflies. Moths though, YUCK!)
-Roller Coasters+ almost any ride that goes upside down + fast
-Needles (The sizes of some of them and when they actually go into my skin...that pinchy feeling. Although I'm not scared of blood+other icky body fluids...or pain, for that matter...)
-death (well, maybe perhaps the ultimate pain that NOBODY really knows what comes after it, if anything.)
-being a poor bum with no money
-water (unfortunately, I cannot swim good at all in anything my feet cannot touch the bottom of without going underwater....I mostly relaxed on the beaches when I was in RI than swam)

Alright, here's a fear. I dreamed last night among other things that I got the message from somewhere that Freeborn would not be made, and that something happened during the production, implying an accident on the set. (Of course, I know that it's still way before the point in which there is a set to have things happen on.)

I think it was not a premonition, but I'm talking about it now, because no one ever produces objective evidence of a premonition; they always say "I foresaw this" after it happened. So, I figure that talking about it will prevent it. No details about what happened that should be avoided, so I can't offer any timeline-altering "stand here instead of there" stuff.

I really don't think it's a premonition. Rather, I think its about the New Orleans catastrophe, just getting rearranged by my subconscious. Maybe it took bits of Brownrigg's account during a film-making seminar at A-Kon, about accidently getting clobbered by a young Intern with some improperly secured equipment, and somehow stuffed that in. The dream had other stuff also going wrong, though I scarcely remember the details.
