Haha Mine would be swimming with sharks! I don't think I'd have the guts but it would be an awesome experience, I think? haha I love water ski racing and thankfully never had a shark with me in the water. But I think I would just freeze if I saw one! I’ve done most things on your list! Haha Mine would be swimming with sharks!

But you don't live in Russia, right? You're in Mesa. So I think you're safe. Too funny. I can understand the bedroom door thing. Seems a lot of people who responded here have similar issues.

Swimming in deep, murky water. I used to be fine with it as a child. Then, I heard reports of the Russian Mafia throwing bodies into the lake that we used to swim in during the summers. Since then, I can't stop picturing dead person fingers touching my foot. 2. Sleep somewhere that I can't see the door. My bed has to be in the right position, so that I can wake up multiple times a night (which I do) and take my surroundings (a.k.a. Strange men that might be in my room, watching me sleep. EEK). What's funny is that I am afraid of lots of things and I can't even think of any to keep this list going As soon as I submit it, they'll come flooding in. .-= Charlene´s last blog ..<a href="http://charlenedawson.blogspot.com/2009/10/today-i-wore.html">Today I Wore...</a> =-.

Still cracking up about the skillet in the fridge. As for the writers' group, I'm still afraid. Maybe after I get the first draft of my book done, I won't feel so bad. Wait? What's that? The first meeting is horrifying? Forget it then. Bobbi — Love your blog! Still cracking up about the skillet in the fridge. As for the writers’ group, I’m still afraid.

I've been told more than once that it's different when they're your own kids, but since it's an "all or nothing" proposition, what if I'm a crappy parent? Then what? Scares the dickens out of me!

Good news is it's different with your own. And even when you don't know what you're doing, well, they're stuck with you!
