Lol, IKR?! In my dreams I’m always heroic (albeit probably a bit misled/reckless), whereas in real life if someone scares me really bad I normally fall over backwards and throw stuff at them before running away.Exactly! If someone scares me in real life, my eyes get embarrassingly big, I jump a foot of the ground, and yelp like a puppy.
I’m super jumpy when its nighttime. By time I usually head upstairs to bed, everyone else is asleep and all the lights are out. I’ll walk out of the bathroom and its pitch black cause all the lights are out, then I’ll realize my sister is sitting in a corner waiting to get in and jump out of my skin.
Funny story: I used to have a room with no windows in it, so at night it was pitch black if the door was closed. One day I was going to go put my book away and my dad jumped out at me from behind the door. He scared me so bad I literally fell over backwards and threw the book at his face. Then I just lay on the ground panting and hoping my heart didn’t beat its way out of my chestLOL, 😅 that’s a great story. You don’t have to answer, but I’m gonna ask, did you hit your dad with the book?
And, lucky me, everyone in my family (plus my mom’s dad) saw that. Heh heh.I’ve had plenty of those moments where I do something stupid and everyone happens to be looking. Usually its my fault that everyone is looking though. Like first snow of the year when tried to get everyone to laugh by running out onto the deck and doing a goofy dance. Welp, it worked. Everyone though it was hilarious when I slipped (on accident) and fell.
I like the trap idea! Maybe we could all take turns making traps. I also like the idea of them being high-up somewhere. stairs or some kind of elevated platform maybe.
