Fear Fearity Fear Fear
Everyone remembers one of their huge fears as a child. A big one of mine was that a fire was going to start in my house while I was sleeping and I would wake up and not be able to escape. Well, actually, that was just one of many. I was a horribly paranoid child. Others included a volcano popping up in my yard and just dominating my house, a robber coming in and killing all my family and then kidnapping me and feeding me ketchup and mustard(don't ask), or even me coming home from school one day to find out that my mother is actually a scary man with a mask on that has been posing as my mother for the last 6 years. Judging by that you would probably assume that my childhood just completely sucked. But it actually was pretty good, those were just the things that could keep me awake at night. It was hard enough to go to sleep already but when I've got all these fears it makes about 10x harder than it was in the first place. I would never think about these things during the day unless I was coming home from school on the bus, silently hoping that my mother wouldn't take off her mask and kill me.

Aaron, sadly, i share the devastating fear of the volcano in the yard. Only in my fear, the volcano did not spit our fire balls of fury, they spit out candy. But not good candy, the kind of candy that your grandma gives you that has no taste and you feel like your licking a frozen milk popsicle. I feel your pain, Aaron Springer, maybe one day we'll find a cure
I've got to say, you had quite an imagination as a kid. Although I am wondering about that whole Ketchup and Mustard thing. hmm.
you know all of those dreams have happened to me before...
Wow . Those fears are pretty extreme .
Dude What???? You should write movies that stuff is just weird.
i guess i can kind of relate to you aaron springer .. although i'd hate to admit it, but when we first moved into our house we live in now for some reason i had this huge fear that my neighbors were kidnappers or robbers or something, and one day they were going to pick me up from school and tell me my parents were hurt, and then kidnap me ... or that like you said the whole mask thing, i thought they were going to dress up as my parents and then lock me in the house and leave me for dead along with my parents who they had tied up. alright, that's all.
