"Where are the clowns? Send in the clowns."

Actually, I would prefer if you DID NOT send in the clowns.

Alright, so I'm afraid of clowns. So what? I had actually attempted to Google- image a picture of a clown to post with this entry but I couldn't do it, so I thought of something else instead. 

Anyway, I have absolutely no idea why it is that I have a fear of clowns. I suppose it is a common fear although there is a difference between a phobia and just being afraid of something. Nothing ever happened to me as a child. Not that I can remember anyway. I was never harmed or influenced by a clown. But any portrayal of a clown absolutely terrifies me. Many people joke and poke fun at me when they see me jump and cover my face or automatically turn the other way, but it is something that I have to live with. If I have kids later on in life I will not be able to enjoy taking them to a circus. I try at all costs to avoid haunted houses during Halloween. While my friends suggest that we go to various haunted houses I have to constantly remind them how just the sight of a clown's face temporarily stops my heart and shortens my breath and sends a warning of shock throughout my body. 

I suppose seeing a person with a pale face, and a painted on smile doesn't appeal to me in the slightest. 

Why did I choose to talk about this? I'm not even sure. Recently people try to trick me into watching movies about clowns. I don't appreciate it. So if you are one of those people, STOP IT.

I, just the other night, had a dream, or you can say nightmare, of a clown. Well actually it was grandfather dressed as a clown and he was trying to scare me. And needless to say, it worked. The dream seemed so real that when I woke up I felt like i was still cowering in the corner like I had been to hide from the clown. I hate clowns. H.A.T.E

I tried to convince myself once that I would dress up as a clown for Halloween. Yea well, ya know what? That isn't going to happen. I'd probably cry and all the makeup would run off. 

Anyway, for all you other victims of Coulrophobia out there, stay strong! :)

That's all for now. 

Until later,

I'm out!

p.s.

if you are afraid of clowns and are looking for info on the phobia of clowns, 

DO NOT go to wikki for information. Why? Because they have this nice little picture of an evil clown on the side. I Immediately changes the page. Stupid wikki -_-
