April Blog Challenge Days #10 and #11

THINGS THAT SCARE YOU

• Something bad happening to Yogi.  Almost anything bad makes the list, but I have a super scary Top 5.


• Traumatic brain injury.  I had a student that suffered a SERIOUS TBI between her freshman and quite delayed sophomore year in college.  She made it back to campus, but she was not even close to the same person.  If I could make everyone I love wear a helmet all.the.time, I would do it.


• Childhood sexual abuse


• Cancer


• The dentist office.  It's not just the drill, it's the whole building and everyone in it.


• Unexpected calls from the doctor/lab after a routine appointment


• The fact that my wife runs long distances alone


• The possibility that Diet Coke and/or spray butter really might kill me

FAVORITE TV SHOWS

• My So Called Life


• Six Feet Under


• Twin Peaks


• Oprah (Yes I have watched it since I was a kid and I refuse to be shamed)


• The Daily Show/Colbert Report


• Top Chef
