ReplyDeleteme too, me too.
i'm also sick of being afraid. love this post.
ReplyDeleteokay so the three digit number in red white and blue was so sick. very clever. Also this is a great list. Sometimes when people do lists (esp. fears) they end up saying all the regular fears "spiders, dying, heights" but you really put new ideas out there and came up with your own specific fears. the bottom of cliffs. Genius.
