Fears

Wednesday, October 31st, 2007

It’s Halloween so I figure what better time to talk about fears and phobias. I’ll admit it…I’ve got some weird ones…like - midgets. Everything about them creeps me out. The way they aren’t proportioned(little arms, little legs, HUGE head, their voice(when you hear a midget talking you KNOW its a midget without even having to see who’s talking…their voice just sounds EVIL), the way they run around kicking people in the shins, their stupid oompa-loompa dance, EVERYTHING. They look like something you should keep as a pet, not legitimate people.

Enough about that though. I’m also terrified of the trainer at my gym. I won’t go in and work out when he is there. He’s HUGE. No exaggerating he is like 7 ft tall and his arms are 2 feet around. And he always wears a ball cap so I’m sure hes hiding devil horns under it. Grr…hes a protein addicted FREAK who gets in the way of me working out. Get your own gym mister.

I don’t feel so bad though after I read an article about celebrity phobias. Billy Bob Thorton is afraid of flying, bright colors, and antiques. David Beckham fears disorder. His wife, Victoria, said that if there are 3 cans of Diet Coke in the fridge, he will throw one away because it isn’t even.

I can understand that though…I have to buy things( like fruit or anything where you pick the number of something small) in odd numbers…3 or 5, but never only 2 or 4. I also have to stop timers like on the microwave or treadmill on an interval of 5.

Anyways, back to the celebrities. Johnny Depp and Sean Combs are afraid of clowns. David Gest has a fear of using the telephone and hearing his own voice. Christina Ricci is scared of house plants.

It is always good to know there are people out their a lot weirder than yourself!
