Irrational Fear

So tell me you all have one and I'm not some crazy weirdo...lol.

What am I afraid of, you may ask? Welllllll, it's not mice, spiders, snakes...you know the usual stuff.

I am absolutely terrified of birds...any and all kinds. Just this morning after I dropped the boy off at daycare I was headed out the doors and a bird must have been sitting just above the door, it swooped down right in front of me...and let's just say it was NOT pretty. I let out a scream that I'm sure woke the entire neighbourhood up (I didn't feel bad though, it was 7:45...and they all should have been up anyway lol).

Where does this fear come from? To be honest, I haven't got a clue! The only thing I can think of is that bio-idiot's mom and stepdad had about 6 of them as pets...I'm sure they are lovely animals...but they let these birds fly around their tiny townhouse and let me tell ya they crapped EvErYwHeRe...and I do mean everywhere...so perhaps that's what it is...I'm scared of being pooped on...but I think it may be a little more than that...and I'm sure I've done this to myself...

But I've had nightmares...crazy nightmares...as in a bird was using their 'claws' to claw at me and scratch me. So how does a fear of a bird relieving itself all over you turn into death by birds??? That I'm really not sure of.

I hope I started your Monday off with a laugh and that you all had great weekends!!!!
