Dude I learned two very valuable lessons tonight! First do your laundry!! I was walking down the hallway and theres this standup laundry basket with another one stacked on top. Its like brimming and it looked like a freakin person. I just about jumped out of my skin. I had to actually touch it to convince myself it wasnt real LOL. and Two dont eat past midnight LOL If I wasnt going in the kitchen for that can of pepsi and the bag of cheetos I would have been safe in my room and wouldnt have been scared to death in the first place LOL Jeez now to get my heart rate back to normal LOL

Oh Sarah...I hate it when that happens! LOL I've had my fair share of things that go bump in the night or thinking I'm seeing something but it's totally harmless. Deep breaths.....

[mcardall]

Oh yeah... Happens all the time here!

My dad shipped a golf club to my husband a few weeks ago. The box it came in is about 4 feet tall and about 6 inches on the other 4 sides... about the same size as the scary little carny folk that haunt my nightmares!

Okay, deep breath. So my husband is ALWAYS hot. So he has the AC blasting all the time. And if he is really hot he puts a stand up fan in our room. And it must be oscillating... following me? I can't even count how many times he leaves for work and the shutting door wakes me and i freak out because it is barely light out and there is this 5 foot tall thing moving at the foot of my bed!

Ohhhhhh no! Glad it was only laundry. I'm such a big chicken...I won't even leave my bedroom by myself after we go to bed!

You know the scariest thing that happened to me is waking in the middle of the night, but not being able to move. Not even wiggle a toe. The first time it happened I truly thought there was someone else in the room watching me. I was too frightened to move right when I woke up, but after a few minutes, I'd try to turn my head to look around but to no avail! It was so frustrating not beig able to do anything.

I knew I was awake though, because I could see the ceiling in front of me. I could see shadows and stuff, but it's like I was frozen with fear. It happened quite a few times, and finally I came across an article that said it was some condition where your mind's awake, but your body's asleep. Since your mind works faster than your body you don't have time to respond. Creepy...

Oh no!!! That is scary!!!!! Garret had a campfire last night with my brother so they were outside and I went to the bathroom and came back out and sat back down at the computer to finish what I was doing and he came up behind me and scared the freakin' crap out of me!! I was sooooo mad!!!

So that's lesson #3: Get a nice husband

[LibbysMommy]

OMG!! That is kinda freaky!! I'm also giggling a little bit too though!!

When my oldest DD (now 10) was about 4 or 5 she got a "life size" barbie from my parents for her birthday. You don't know how many times I came into the living room (I worked a 3AM to noon bakery shift) at 2am and had the living crap scared out of me.....I swear to god that thing looked just like a real little girl!!

Needless to say that barbie din't last very long in our house!!!

[kscwgirl]

omg.. so know what you mean.. Abby had this giant stuffed bear.. that thing scared the crap out of me twice before I banished it.

[my3hens]

LMAO We had to banish a life size cinderalla doll too LOL Im glad im not the only one! I am glad to know im not losing my mind, I am usually jumpy but I coulda swore we either had some kind of haunting or a home invader LOL

[Nikki Epperson]

I'm cracking up at this -- but only b/c it's happened to me -- and I guess I will start the stinking laundry! LOL

[Becca Bonneville]

That is hilarious! I do that to myself all the time too!

[mommy2aria06]

Oh that is so scary!! I would have been terrified too hun!

[mrs_jb]

LOL! Two excellent lessons! Sorry you were freaked though, I hate when that happens! I'm a big old chicken and jump at my own shadow, LOL!
