    I can handle everything on the list, but I definitely don't do RODENTS. If there are signs of a mouse in the house, I ask my husband to check the drawers and pantry before I get close to them. Blick!!! :eek:

    I'm surprised no one's said aging yet ... :laugh:

    Considering the alternative, aging doesn't bother me. :)

    Heights!
    As a kid I'd climb talls trees till the branches creaked and snapped.

    Now I get dizzy just standing on my toes.

    Of course I'm 150 lbs heaver so branches would brake off now anyhows.

    I am afraid of the dark. I always use a nightlight.

    WHEW! I trusted you to a degree so I clicked it, but I also backed my chair up, shut my eyes, tingles ran down my spine, and I peeked just enough to see if it was gonna be scary, with my arm outstretched and finger on the mouse, ready to click off if needed.

    I FEEL DUMB!

    That was cute. And glad I can trust you. LOL Some people wouldn't be that nice! :laugh:

    Heights. I can't even look at a picture of a view from way up there. Also swarms of any kind, and car trouble. I've been in two really bad wrecks, and a few minor ones.

    love,

    You're scared of White Anglo Saxon Protestants?

    Heights get to me if I have to climb them, like ladders, but I tend to flip people out on things like ledges, cliffs, etc.. Walking along them or sitting on the edge. I think it's pretty nice. It's like sitting there with half of you on earth and the other half in heaven, or walking along being halfway there because an inch to one side and you're on solid earth, an inch the other way and you're in God's arms.
    I'm not as balanced anymore so it's been a while, but I miss doing that. Thanks for the reminder! My favorite was one that probably wouldn't have been deadly, just really painful. It was a rock wall along a lake by a lighthouse and below was water and sharp rocks. I LOVE lighthouses, and walking the edge or sitting on the edge of the rock wall as the sun went down was a neat experience. (then I found out it was illegal)

    I'm afraid of:

    Heights.
    Mullets.
    The British.
    Clowns.

    Being pushed off a tower by a mullet-wearing Elton John into a pit of jubilant clowns would be my idea of a bad day.
