I have no idea why I am choosing to share this 10 list with any of my friends. Everyone already knows I am a fairly cautious person, but this will put me in a whole new category of wimpy.
Here are 10 things I don't prefer to be around/see/hear. In other words, things I'm scared of.
- Lightening. My grandfather was struck by lightening years and years ago. That's about all it took for me.
- Tornadoes. See a theme here? I watched an F5 coming straight for our school bus as we were driving through a town that was destroyed four minutes after we passed through. Again, that's about all it took for me.
- Snakes. No explanation, just yuck.
- Flying. It's not that I get airsick, or that I'm afraid of crashing (maybe a little...who wouldn't be?), I just don't like it.
- Heights. This might explain #4. I blame my father. He's terrified of heights, so it's in the blood.
- The stomach flu. Okay, "scared" may not be the right word, but I hate it so much that "scared" would almost qualify.
- Spiders - the big, brown, hairy kind.
- Needles - I can handle them if I don't have to look.
- Water in the basement - I've realized that this brings tons of complications you never wanted to deal with and very little hope of ever completely solving the problem.
- Food that is not plain and boring. I just had to throw this in because I knew if I didn't, I would get comments about it anyway!
There it is. I hope I get bit by the creative bug before next Friday.
