Just be glad you don't live in a mobile home like I do. During the rainy season the power goes out all the time, here. And I mean a lot. watchout for the candles, too. We don't want to have to put out any fires.

I don't want anyone to put out fires, either, lol. No worries about the candles....I'm diligent almost to the point of crazy when it comes to things like that, I'm terrified of fire.

Bonfires, candles, fireplaces...those are all fine, they don't scare me, but the thought of being caught in a fire terrifies me. If I see a house on fire or a house that has burned, or even smell a house fire, my stomach knots up.
And no, I've never been the victim of fire.

Fire and water are my greatest fears as fas as death. I am also ver claustrophobic.
I read a short piece by Dickens describing fire and saying how it made him envision the horror of witch-burnings. Ever since then, that's what I think of when I see fire. Dickens can make something stay in your head forever.

I guess in a way I have been a victim of fire... I have a large scar on my arm where I was helping my Dad burn some trash...and he told me not to get to close...so I threw the item I had into the fire...some tar popped out on my arm.....All I can remember is just standing there and screaming bloody murder.....
and I am very claustrophobic...but I am working on both of these fears....especially in this Rig....
