Things that I'm scared of 1.5;
The sound of balloons popping
people telling me to leave
girls yelling
girls fuming
angry dogs
letting someone down
failing in my endeavors

but the one that got me into a fit last night was; eye drops. I am deathly afraid of eye drops.
Retarded I know. But I've been afraid of them since I was a kid. You never knew when it was actually going to drip into your eye and my mother would get so mad when I moved my head out of the way.
I stressed and freaked out for at least half and hour last night about these stupid eye drops that i have to take to get rid of this blasted pink eye, to the point that my father had to talk me into it, saying that I'm an adult now and should be able to get over a childhood fear, but he knows how much I hate them so he didn't push me all that much. But something that I've learned from Marilyn, there are always two ways to do something. So I tried to figure out my alternative. One of the biggest parts that I don’t like is not knowing when its going to go into my eye, so I figured out a way that I could watch it happen. tilted my head to the side and let it drip into the side of my eye as I watched in the mirror.
I'm happy that I figured out a way to get it done.
Doesn't mean that they don't still scare the living shit out of me, just means that I figured out a way their not quite as scary...

call me crazy, but its one of my things.

just never wave the damb things around in front of my face, violence is my only defense. I mean if I just sat down you could get it in my eye...no, I would rather take out your knees first.
