Oh GOD, the first time I encountered one of these I called my mom at WORK and made her drive OVER because she didn't believe my description. They are disgusting, horrid things!!!!! I read that a lot of soldiers who have gone to Afghanistan are freaked out by them since there are a lot of them in that area. I think if a SOLDIER is scared than I'm well within my rights to be scared, too..!!!
Also, driving..yeah. It was hard to adjust to driving in the UK (steering wheel on different side as well as traffic) so I can relate to that fear...
I think, though, my biggest fear is still failure with cancer as a near second.
I ruminate over failing constantly and it keeps me awake some nights. I don't know what started this and I don't think anyone can tell me and I'm not sure how much the origins of the issue matter. I don't even know what my definition of failure is since I know that one must sometimes fail in order to succeed. All I know is that it sucks to be my own worst enemy and fear an abstract notion!
Bleah!
