Fears


I have three main fears: 1. Spiders 2. Aliens 3. Social Situations. When I was really little (probably somewhere between three and five) I was spending the night at my Aunt Karen's house. I don't remember what the movie was but it was about these little green alien guys. In the movie the alien's were nice but in one scene a lady opens the curtains to look out her bedroom window that was on the second story and an alien is looking back at her hanging in mid air. That did it, from then on I have been terrified of aliens. So why, you might ask, am I watching a show called UFO Hunter's? I couldn't really give you a good answer. Maybe because Russ likes it or maybe because I think it will help me get over my fear. We watched three episodes on Saturday night and I have been scared to be alone in the house ever since. It did not help me get over my fear it only intensified it. Bleh.

For some reason aliens have been a fear of mine too since I was little. I remember sitting in the backseat of our minivan at night, next to the window, afraid that an alien would lean over the top of the car and plaster it's disgusting alien face onto the window right next to my seat.

It was called the Aurora Central or Aurora something or other. I also am afraid of them and hate movies like "Signs" but I always watched X-files and then had nightmares the rest of the night.

I have to agree with the spider one. My friends and I were talking about being afraid of heights and how they can handle their kids being close to railings etc when there is a ledge. I commented that I dont' have that problem, but put a spider with in a foot of me and I freak out and can't move etc. Let me tell you that having Isaac who loves bugs around is the best thing there is. He knows that I hate bugs and he will willingly get them. He doesn't even tease me like some.
