But...I like my own bathroom.  I'll often drive home instead of "going" at the mall.


Same here, as a kid I'd never go to the restroom at those interstate rest stops. I just wait til I get to the motel/hotel.

My biggest phobia has to be needles

.. but especially blood tests ..

i know it doesn't hurt but even if I don't look I nearly pass out ..

.. somehow i can feel the nurse switching the viles .. makes me all rubbery and pale.

  The good thing is that I will never do intervenous drugs . !!

I can't look, either.  I need to shield my eyes and stare at the cartoons on the wall.

I have a phobia about dying slowly. I just want to die a fast painless death...years from now of course.

Being buried alive....... that's one. I'm putting a cellphone in my coffin for JUST IN CASE. My hubby says it's a bad idea as he doesn't want a call from me. Heh.

 I have to agree with Devil here. I dont want to die slowly, causing me pain as well as any family I might have.

I want all accounts settled so theres nothing from me hanging about. A Bang, Crash, or Explosion is the way I want to go..

Agreed, if nukes ever go off, run towards the explosion, not away!

  I am also afraid of empty pizza boxes.    

Gregg

I just want to die a fast painless death... ^^^ .... back in the day, a quick, unexpected death was not considered desireable .. because one could not settle family affairs properly .. on the other hand, lyeing in bed and suffering was also considered terrible.

  Therefore, the best death for them was slow..yet painless .. strange huh . gofig

I think you need to have your legal and insurance houses (+ spiritual/religious, if you're so inclined) in order JUST IN CASE.

 setting up a living trust will solve a lot of these loose ends

My financial planner/insurance guy is a personal friend, so I'm going to assume he will drag his butt off the golf course and take care of business if I kick the bucket.
