I really have no phobias or fears of anything in particular. I am smart enough to not pick up snakes, spiders, or scorpions. Wasps will get my attention but I just leave them alone unless they are inside, then they die.

I was at an astronomy viewing party once at a friends house. He lives out in the country in a very dark area. We had 20 or 25 people there all looking through the telescopes.

The home owner told me from the beginning if I need to use the bathroom facilities to head back to the house 100 yards away. He said don't go between those two trees, there are a lot of spiders in the trees. Several hours later I headed up to the house and completely forgot his warning. I remembered as I felt lots of spider webs all over me. It was absolutely total black dark so I was blind and covered in spider webs. I had no idea what type of spiders they were.

That kinda gave me the willies and I hot footed it out of there to the house. There were lots of webs in my hair when I got inside. I did not walk back through the trees.
