(I got the idea for this list off of Mighty Girl, who had been inspired by this person’s list.)
What irrational thoughts does your brain have? Here are some things I sometimes imagine against my will:
- Twin Peaks character Bob behind me when I am splashing my face in the sink and am just about to look into the mirror
- The implant in my eye suddenly comes loose and pops! slicing open my eye and I have to pull it out
- Subway lunatic taking a hammer to my head
- Maggots in my food and crawling into my soul. FOREVER.
- How badly my body will burn up in the atmosphere if I fall from outer space
- Sea monster’s suction-cupped octo-leg drags me into the murky depths
- Finding something/someone dead
- Rubber arms
Don’t even get me started on the horrible thoughts and fears I have when it comes to my child.
a day in the week 
In the “Don’t even get me started on the horrible thoughts and fears I have when it comes to my child” department..Since having a second child, I often have a “Sophie’s Choice” moment and it is really really horrible.
Yours are much funnier than mine!

Hey Buttercup, I also had the fear of finding someone dead… then my dad died in my arms. I cradled his head, stroked his hair told him it was okay to go while watching him take his last breath. It was a disturbingly beautiful moment. I haven’t been afraid since…
