We'll miss you Lennie

Mar 13, 2008 16:15

I had a mouse in my classroom. A small mouse who would cruise around all over the place for about 3 weeks. The thing is, I never actually saw him. Until today when I glanced in the corner of my room where the mouse trap was. Yep, then I saw Lennie. My fault for not checking before school. I came a nano-syllable away from saying "Oh Shit" in ( Read more... )

Second that "Crimson and Clover" song fear.

Invisible sharks in bathtubs and pools.

That's a good one.
When in the bathtub I never want to let water out while I am still in it because I just know that 10,000,000 little invisible germs get into the water.

I thought Incredible Hulk was a good guy?!

I second the sharks in the pool and when I was a kid even in the bathtub.
I'll get in a pool without too much fear now, but there is always just the briefest flash of terror.
I still won't get in the Lake of the Ozarks. There COULD be sharks in there, people.

Nice pic!

My older sister used to force me to watch Incredible Hulk. I'm uncomfortable just thinking about it.

I'm impressed that your sullen Vegas kids had the ironic sense to call the mouse Lennie.

I'm surprised that you can't say "shit" in a Vegas classroom.

No, I totally could have. I didn't want to. Actually, my honors classes are pretty Mormon so I think maybe they all would have began praying for me right away.

*Disclaimer--Some of the nicest people I've met here are Mormons. In fact, once a year they try to get me to "choose the right" with them.*

One of my best friends in CR is a Mormon, and she really is the nicest sweetest most generous person you could hope to know. I've become a lot more aware of anti-Mormon prejudice as a result. And she hasn't tried to convert me, or even really discuss it with me, so she gets serious points for that.

So Tommy James (and the Shondells) in a Freddie Krueger mask driving a little tiny car would just be the ultimate nightmare for you, wouldn't it.

Well, I did drive a Geo Metro in high school, so maybe I could handle the litte car part. Unless it was very obviously a clown car.

SBTB is my NKOTB, OK?
My Fears:
1. The I Dream of Jeannie opening Credits.
2. The dark.
3. The Muppets (not anymore, actually, but they were a fear for a while).
4. Breaking my ankle when jumping from anywhere higher than a top hat.
5. Other stuff.
