    Electrical storms.

    Short story: Trapped as a 5 year old kid who wandered out after lunch while visiting family friends on a farm, into the tall cornfields.

    Huge thunderstorm rolled in, I was lost, lightening all around, striking trees. Me crying. You get the idea. My father and the farmer found me after what I was told was 15-20 minutes but seemed like 2-3 hours of being out there. There was even a tornado fairly close by that same afternoon.

    I can tolerate the storms now, but I am not calm when they are severe.

    Waking up one day, looking around my house in the suburbs in a loveless marriage to an average looking woman, and realizing that I was mediocre.

    Not really, but that's comically melodramatic isn't it?

    My biggest (two g's, yo) fear is probably being bitten by a brown recluse spider. Those suckers are creepy.

    Being caught in a tornado. I have no idea why, as I've never even seen one and don't live anywhere near where they usually hit. Yet I've had nightmares about them for twenty years.

    My biggest phobia is spiders. I am petrified of them and I can spot one as soon as I walk into a room... probably because I regularly check for them, though. I can't sit on a toilet, get in a shower, walk on a porch, or lift a garbage can lid without inspecting for spiders first. Also, if I have to walk through any wooded area I have to have a long stick or branch to swing in front of me just in case. There have been a few times when a spider has managed to get on me or very close to me and my body literally shuts down with fear.

    Other than that I have a big fear of losing my mom.

    Getting pregnant. It really, really scares me, the idea of getting pregnant. I mean, what would I do with it? How would I explain it? Would I keep it? Then what? Would I make an ok parent? What about the other person? How do I explain that?! Then everything comes out, a lot of things get revealed... oh it's awful, just the thought.

    Greatest fear is tornados. When I was about 7, a tornado went through our town. The sheriff was knocking on every door because it was around 2 in the morning. My dad was out of town on business so it was just my mother, my grandmother (who came to help my mom), and my two baby brothers. We had to hurridly gather up our stuff and run to the play room which was under the steps underground. Now, everytime I ever hear the word tornado in our forecast, I pack up the kids and animals and go to my parent's house (they only live 15 minutes from me).

    The dark!! Believe it or not, I am terrified of the dark. I was molested as a child in the dark and ever since then, I HATE being alone in the dark. If someone is with me, I'm fine.
    Also, I am terrified of dying and not being "saved". The thought of spending eternity in hell scares the crap out of me!
