Odd Phobia
The other night I went up to my grandparents house for the weekend. My sweet Granny let me sleep in her favorite guest room that all of the grandkids call the "ocean room." The wall are blue and there is a queen-sized waterbed. I was grateful for her hospitality, but in all honesty I was worried about how much sleep I would end up getting because I am secretly afraid of waterbeds. Every time I attempt to sleep in one, I find myself laying there, afraid to move and wondering what would happen if I accidentally punctured the bed in my sleep. I have imagined a number of horrific things that could happen. There is the possibility of the "warm water" effect where I end up peeing the bed or there is the possibility that I could end up drowning in my pillow. Plus, when I wake up in the middle of the night, I always end up disoriented and unable to get out of the waterbed and I know that I look like a looney in my attempt. All in all, waterbeds are an odd phobia I have and for that reason, I dread going to Grandma's house.
