Five Question Friday

1. What are you most afraid of?
Oh, where do I start? Lol! Flying would be at the top of the list, which is really unfortunate. I've flown lots of times, but only once since 9/11. I only flew when I was young and naive. =) I just don't trust people enough to put my life in their hands... pilots who are too busy playing on their laptops to pay attention to where they are flying, or fellow passengers who may have bad intentions. Also at the top of the list, I'm afraid of losing someone I love. I have no idea how/if I could cope with something like that. I'm afraid (afraid maybe isn't the right word) of not doing my best for God, for not doing exactly what He wants me to do.

2. Do you use a flat iron or a curling iron?
I've tried just about everything on my hair, once. And all with the same results: straight, flat hair. I realize that some people want their like that, so I try to be happy with it. =)

3. Hands-free or phone to the ear?
Phone to the ear. The hands-free headphones I tried a few years ago had a really intolerable echo.

4. Do you have a matching bedroom set?
Well, we don't have a headboard. The window/bed placement doesn't allow for one. We have an overall bedroom theme colors of black, red, and gray.

5. Do you believe in the paranormal?
I absolutely don't believe in ghosts, if this is what the question is asking. I've noticed that ghosts etc are so prevalent in children's books and shows. I'm amazed at how many library books I pass over because of references to ghosts. So many Scooby-do episodes have ghosts in them, and even a few of the Thomas episodes show the trains either telling ghost stories or the trains hear strange sounds and assume it's a ghost. It's tough to teach your children the truth when they're practically surrounded by untruth. On Curious George the other day, George was obsessed with wearing his "lucky" hat. Sheesh. Just what I want my kid to start believing. It's amazing how much of our American culture has been infiltrated by lore and superstition.
