Can you visualise your worst imagineable NIGHTMARE??!!

Yes, I can.....and it gives me the heebies!!

Picture this......

I'm perched on a very narrow ledge, several stories above terra firma, and on a very cold and blustery day.

I have 20 feet of just a 6-inch wide, narrow strip of concrete to make it to an open window that beckons me to the warmth and sanctity of a safe haven.

I have to very cautiously traverse those 20 feet and somehow make it to that open, inviting window.

Now, that would be my worst nightmare - I'M DEATHLY AFRAID OF HEIGHTS!!

What's your worst nightmare like??

JJ

If you've seen the movie Arachnophobia, that would be mine. I'm terribly afraid of spiders.

I know Jen hates spiders , Never worried me, even the big bird catchers up north.

I did have this terrible dream one I was eating two huge marshmallows, went on for hours, woke up the next day, both my pillows had disappeared

I rarely remember dreams and nightmares for that matter, I can't remember the last time I had either, There were the usual ones as a child, you all know what I'm talking about, stand up a school and your pants and underwear are missing, or the creepiest thing in the world is chasing you and you running like hell but not moving an inch hehehehhe.

PS. JJ when I first say this thread, one and only one joke came to mind, worst nightmare, sliding down a forty foot razorblade using you b@lls as brakes

Crude mode off *click*

Even though I can swim, my worse nightmare is being in the middle of a lake or ocean and too tired to stay afloat!

This thread seems to have taken a turn on the humorous side, but drowning....or being buried alive...that will get me up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat

If I'm stressed about something, I always have the same type of dream. Regardless of where I am, it's always dark and I can't find my way.

Mine would have to be me out riding the bike, and seeing the wreck that is about to befall me, and not being able to do anything about it ....

Seeing the large truck bearing down on me, and nothing I do, down-shifting, brakes, foot-dragging, nothing is capable of changing the outcome ...

As the trucks grill gets closer, I swear I can see the bugs embedded therein, and just at the moment of impact .....

I bolt upright in bed .... scares the hell out of the wife everytime ... doesn't do much for me either ......

Cheers!
Bill

I can't envision it, nor do I want to, but burning alive is definitely not the way I want to go.
