I'm Afraid

Maybe it's because I'm naive but I don't fear a lot of things that I hear other people fear. I hear some people talk about being afraid of dying, the economy, clowns, terrorist attacks, sharks, flying on airplanes, and speaking in public.  Now I am not saying that I live without fear. I just don't fear some of the same things that a lot of other people do. I am afraid of...

• Porta Potties. The look inside plus the smell is gag nasty.
• Cottage Cheese. It just looks like old lumpy milk.
• Lima Beans. I have shared this before but I've never eaten a lima bean. I have seen my sister choke down some in order to get dessert from my parents. Right before my first bite she puked back into her plate a green substance that looked like something out of The Exorcist. That was all I needed to see to know that I don't want to eat those things.
• Other people's babies. I am afraid of all babies, but with my own I won't feel the same level of anxiety holding them. When they aren't mine I'm afraid I'll drop em.
• Cats. I am not afraid of cats like some people are afraid of snakes. I don't see one and scream, but they kind of creep me out. When a cat jumps up on the couch behind me I get a little scared.
• Going bald. I am afraid of going bald. I don't have a good bald head. I have a speed bump on the back of my head. I am trying hard to hold on to what I have because I am afraid of losing my last few remaining hairs. Hold on guys hold on!
• Talking to people when I have bad breath. It happens...bad breath that is. I am very aware that it happens and I get afraid of talking to people when I think my breath stank and I don't have a breath mint or gum.
• People walking in when I am using a public bathroom. Everyone uses the bathroom but it really should be a private matter.

So that's my list. What are you afraid of?
