Weird Confessions

Inspired by some of the funny confessions on KPS today.

Mine:  I'm really scared of fish.  Which is weird, because I'm not scared of snakes or spiders... just fish.  I love water and I love boats and I love the ocean, but I won't swim in it because I don't want a fish to touch me.  The idea FREAKS ME OUT.  I also hate the feel of the bottom of the ocean.  It's so slimy. 

I don't care for birds, either.  I feel like they're smarter than they let on.

    I'm terrified of falling.  Even just off the couch.  FI will make like he's going to shove me off and I cling for dear life.

    I am terrified of lobsters.  I have no idea why.  I don't even like looking at them, alive or dead.

    My BIL/SIL want us to come over to their place for Mothers' Day with my MIL, and have lobster.  I can't really say no, I won't go, but I am dreading seeing them on the plates.  I realize this is stupid.

    Bay, I can eat lobster tails, but I cannot handle a whole one.  My coworker ordered one at dinner one night (huge one) and at one point made it look at me.  My skin is crawling thinking about it.

    The thought of fish touching me in water freaks me out.  Actually anything touching me in water freaks me out.  I think it's because you're basically helpless in the water.  I went swimming with manatees once, and thought it was the coolest thing ever until one swam by me in murky water and brushed my leg.  I freaked and went back to the boat and never got back in.


    I am deathly afraid of slugs.  As in I will flip my sh!t and run away if I see one.  The first time we went to the dog park here the trail was covered in slugs, and I wigged.  I tiptoed the entire half mile each way on the trail, and screamed about 50 times probably.  H thinks I'm a weirdo.

    I used to feel the same way about fish.  Like it would be so gross and scaly if they touched me, and what if the scales rubbed off on my leg or something and they died and I was swimming with a bunch of dead fish.  I've gotten a little better.  I did a snorkeling trip in high school that involved swimming with fish, but I got to wear a thick, full body wetsuit, so I wasn't worried about them touching my skin (only worried about eels wrapping themsleves around my leg).  Ewww eels.

    I was at a friends' house once, and they had lobster.  I had to go out into the other room to take a phone call.  While I was talking, I felt something on my arm.  One of my idiot friends had taken his lobster's antennae and was running it up and down my arm.  OMG.

    I screamed and made a total ass of myself.  I can't stand those things.

    This is weird, but I can't stand the word "meal." Hearing it makes me cringe - it just sounds odd. All I can think about is mealworms, and it just grosses me out!

    With the exception of halloween, I cannot handle people dressed up as things. Clowns, Mickey and Minnie at Disney, Mimes. Whatever. Can't do it. I turn around as soon as I see them. Halloween doesn't bother me though and around halloween I can hack it. Otherwise, I get a horrible feeling in my stomach.

    There was a guy dressed as Santa at a work party once and my boss had to push me past him so I could go in the room. We took a picture with Santa and I was shaking and had to get away from him. If my boss hadn't requested we take the pic for our FB page I wouldn't have gone near him.

    The ocean doesn't bother me (except when seaweed wraps around my feet and toes), but OMG - the LAKE. I must see the bottom, people. There's no telling what's down there. Slime, algae, goo, trash, snakes, fish.... Jason - you just don't know. No lake swimming for me, unless it's a clear lake.

    I'm terrified of possums.

    I will wear jeans 5 or 6 times before I wash them.

    I will, on occasion, eat something off the floor if I just dropped it

    I have somewhat OCD tendencies when it comes to washing my hands


    I understand that numbers 2 & 3 make no sense when paired with number 4..

    When I went to overnight camp, I told my swim teacher I had a pulled muscle in my neck for an entire month so I wouldn't have to learn how to dive into the murky lake.  I was ok with swimming in the lake and staying near the surface, but I was not diving into the unknown.

    I learned how to swim in a massive lake, so seaweed and fish don't bother me. *shrug* I've also been waterskiing in about 85 feet of river water, so yeah. Birds are weird, though. I don't like them. I also hate monkeys.

    Ditto Mery.  I learned to swim in fresh water, so fish were in abundance.  One nibbled my brother's toes, once.  He hates us retelling that story.

    I constantly imagine car crashes when I'm driving.  They're super vivid and sometimes I see all the way through to my family being notified and my funeral.  It's so morbid.  I think I just have an overactive imagination.

    <div>Yeah, I guess my view is pretty skewed too, because I go swimming in the Niagara River off the boats and waterskiing and stuff.  And I waiterski off Sherkston.  But whenever I am in the deep water I kick around a lot to scare off fish.  </div>

    <div>I hate when they use cotton balls at the dentist.  It irks me out to have them in my mouth (that's what she said).  Shoot me with all the needles you need, drill my teeth for hours, just don't stick cotton in there.</div>

    You're not alone :(  I do this too.  Sometimes I cringe and get a headache from the imagined impact.
