    1. Spiders
    2. Heart attacks (having one)
    3. Losing my job

    spiders - about 4 times a week for the last year or so i've been having bad dreams about spiders. i wake up from the dreams freaking out and each time i think there is a spider either on me, right above my head or the other night on top of the back of the couch. the last one one where i thought i saw the spider on the couch, i freaked out so much that i was moving furniture around to make sure the mthrfkr wasn't hiding.

    heart attacks - similar to what brianyut was talking about the other day i also get chest pains occassionally and considering the fact that my dad has already had 2 of them, i always feel like it is just a matter of time for me.

    losing my job - this one is probably due to the fact that we just had a baby and sales here at my company have slowly been trending down the last 7 years, which is scary when your job feels somewhat disposable.

    My biggest fear is losing my daughter and/or not being the father I want to be for her.

    I have two fears... Cancer and ending up unhappy.

    1. Cancer.
    I'm both scared of getting cancer from smoking, but I'm also scared of someone I live with getting cancer from second hand smoking. The guilt would be awfull if that happened.

    2. Ending up unhappy
    I suck extremely much with relationships, and I think I could easily end up getting some psycho pregnant and then just staying with her for the kid(s). Or maybe just not ever moving out from my ex who I still live with, who is now acting like we are back together.

    heights scare the shit outta me...

    here in ohio we have a little park called "whips ledges"

    me and my buddies go here to smoke up...

    its a big wooded area with some huge rock formations that people like to climb...

    we usually find a nice ledge...climb it....get stoned...then find a way down...

    the way down is always scary as shit for me...

    no matter how easy the climb down is staring at that 50 foot drop always makes my stomach turn...

    yet Im still out there every year like a jackass just waiting to fall to my death

    I fear a lot of the normal things like heights, bugs, etc. etc.

    but like someone already said...medocrity is what i fear the most. I don't want to become like everyone else with your 9-5 boring/sucky job, wife n kids, living in the same neighborhood going through everyday life until you die. For most people this may seem ideal, but I've always thought there should be more to life. Maybe I'm blind to the reality of it all. I'm beginning to realize though that this is probably an inevitable occurence bound to happen. :(
