Yup. I'm the crazy balloon lady.

Well, it's official: I am the crazy balloon lady. I can't remember if I posted this story or not, but a month or so ago, I was waiting on this woman at The Co-op. She was with her little daughter, and her daughter had a balloon. Now, most people who know me know that I'm afraid of balloons. Terrified, if you must know. It wasn't always that way

My son loves balloons. Occassionally, he buys a pack with his pocket money and balloons litter my living room for a good week or two. You have to be careful where you step. I can tell it kick started my day unexpectedly a few mornings with some misplaced feet and legos. GEEZ! KA-BOOM!

OMG OMG OMG OMG!!!!

I AM SOOOOOO AFRAIND OF BALLOONS!!!

It started when i was a kid when i luved ballons but oneday i was blowing one up to see how big it could get and it BLEW UP IN MY FACE!!! it stug like nothin else i swear! so im cryin and crying and my brothers and sister are laughin and laughin....i was o traumatised...obviously.

I visably cringe away from ballons when they are around. THey sorta burnn into my head like they're eminating some kind of narrier orf explosiveness. I've yelped out loud when they've popped unexpecteldy. I dont like picking them up espcially if theyre on the ground--theres bound to be something shapr to pop it! if one floats onto the carpet or worse the grass o just get super tense and feel like im gonna die!

but its not like its irrational. i mean think about it:

A BALLOON IS AN EXPLOSION WATING TO HAPPEN!!!

They are satanic!

now thats a post...
