Facing my Fear

I believe that Netflix is one of the best things ever invented.  That being said, I have been watching seasons of various television shows, one of which is Obsessed. This show deals with people who experience anxiety and OCD.  I have diagnosed anxiety issues and my counslor believes mild OCD.  I always thought people with OCD are very clean (which I'm not), germophobes (not me), or routinely count/touch objects (nope).  Hearing that I may have mild OCD is just weird to me.  Back to Obsessed, I have watched two episodes and am amazed at the strength of the patients struggling with these anxiety issues. Because of the this, I have decided to face one of my fears and blog about my experience.  Just typing about my fear and thinking of it right now, my heart is starting to race.  I am going to try- try to confront of my biggest fears that has been strangling me since I was a very small child.  I am sure many of you will laugh and think I am kidding, but I am not. My family knows the extent of my fear.  My fear that I will be facing is that of the movie, E.T.  Laugh it up, knuckleheads. This is serious.  I am starting to itch and sweat as I think about finding the movie on the On Demand channels of my cable company. Will I be able to do this? I highly doubt it. It is now 2:44pm EST on October 7th, 2010. I will write in my blog again after I watch the movie.  Don't hold your breath, though.
