Irrational Fears...

Irrarionnal fears. Do you have one? I do. I have a fear of bugs. No, not just a fear of bees and spiders, but a fear of butterflies and everything else that is considered an insect. The bug that I hate worst would have to be the cockroach. They are discusting creatures. I think that I am afraid of bugs because they carry diseases. The most afraid thought that I posess is what is one of them gets into my mouth? Gross! But there are facts that the average human being swallows 6-8 spiders a year. Also, there are such things as tape worms. Tape worms are long worms that live in your digestive track. Thank God that you do not have one. It has been said that if a human with a tape worm is starving, then that tape worm is too. If the tape worm is starving then it will come up at night to look for food. It will come up through your throat and then to your mouth. My Zoology teacher told me a story of a man who dreampt of something in his throat at night and then he turned up to have a tape worm. He woke up one night and pulled this tape worm out of his throat. I would have went into annaflectic shock! What I am saying is that people have silly fears. Fears that need to be got over. Fears that inhibbit peoples lives. I would rather be put in a room with rats then be put in a room with bugs. But I have to do what I have to do!

I have quite a few irrational fears.
For one, I'm terrified to talk to people on the phone...
That's an odd one, no?

And that's comin' at ya' from yer local redneck hippie.
