Woodticks and clowns are what freak me out. I've pulled a couple ticks out of my dog this spring and can hardly get to the toilet fast enough to flush it. I HATE the bloody things!!
The clowns.....that's a long story.....has to do with my birthday party when I was about 8. Not a pretty sight.

Have I mentioned filling tanks freak me out!!!? 
And I think we are all in the same camp with clowns. Clowns took on a whole freaky theme with the mini-series IT (Tim Curry was simply fabulously scarey) and then there was this one sci fi movie....I catch those every "once" in a while - Killer Klowns from Outer Space.

I get freaked out when I have to go into a crawl space under the house. Crawl through a small opening on your belly, come face to face with a creepy crawley (snake, spider, what ever the heck that ugly furry thing is), so you try to raise up and move back and get a nail in your head, now you've dropped the flashlight, try to reach it and ouch nail in the shoulder this time. It looks like I've been in a fight by the time I get back out.

clowns are frickin evil incarnate and much be eradicated.
evil evil evil.
and yeah, Stephen King's book "IT" didn't help.
OK, lets make a deal. If you stop telling me how to dive, I'll stop going down to the bus station at 2am to slap d***s out of your mouth.

hey Brad, good to see you flying your freak flag... 
BIG HUGE BROWN SPIDERS are taking over my house right now. Now don't get me wrong, I actually think spiders are pretty darn cool, but these things are HUGE!! I have no clue what kind of spiders they are - anyone on SD know a bit about spiders? If so, I'll describe these for you.....*shudder*

Mmmmmm....raisins are great! I love them on my salad, and especially love to eat chocolate covered raisins. Even if they do look like bugs!

Fish eyes, eggs, and snails...now those freak me out! Cow tongue....blech!
Hmmmm, cow tongue.... hmmmm, mmmmmh!

Actually, the WORST day of diving is better than the BEST day at work...
and... my life is not measured by the number of breaths I take, but by the number of breaths I take UNDER WATER

The Portland Rose Festival is underway and the Fleet just arrived. Our waterfront is lined with an activities village and reminded me of another thing that freaks me out....
Carnies!

Here's another: my dog staring at something on the ceiling/wall when I know there is nothing there. Makes me creepy thinking she can see something/someone I can't.
OH WHATEVER!!

Speaking of creepy - what about those odd noises your house makes at the worst hours. I swear it sounded like someone was milling about my loft last night when I was downstairs.
