What are your phobias and habits

[Donnaj4962]

GREAT THREAD!!!

Fears..... grasshoppers. Yes, I am terrified of them (especially the flying ones) and I have been known to hyperventilate when more than one is close by. It comes from my childhood when one landed on my leg while I was riding my bike on a gravel path. I crashed and skinned my leg pretty bad. Years ago, I came home from work to find a WHOLE GROUP of grasshoppers hanging out at my front door (like it was a party place or something!) and I sat in my car for almost 1/2 an hour before I finally walked all the way around the building (of maybe 15 + apartments) and went in the back door! I can't stand to even see plastic ones in the stores, or real ones on TV. Freaks me out!

Habits.... I get up in the morning and go into the bathroom to turn the water in the sink on for the cats. They drink while I, well, you know! Then we all 3 go downstairs and I feed the girls. Then I take my medicine and make my lunch (on work days). Then I go back upstairs and take my shower and finish getting ready for work.

Also, I always say the following before going to sleep at night: "Good night Tabitha. Good night Sasha. Everybody sleep well, sleep fast, sleep tight. And I will see you in the morning light." I even say it when I am NOT at my own home (silently of course!)

This is an interesting thread.

My Phobias:

Heights- I can't stand being high up.. My knees start shaking and everything.

Old, big Houses- I always picture a haunted movie made in one of these.

Wild Rats- If you want to get me out of a room, have one of these show up. I freak out.

Habits-

I always eat my sandwich outside from the in.

I always eat my pizza toppings first and then the crust.

I say "Oh, really" way to much.

If I think of more, I will come back to this thread..
