When I was about 10 or so, the family tried to drive from New Mexico to Disneyland. The car decided it only wanted to go as far as Casa Grande, AZ, so we were stuck there for about 4 days. To top that off, my Dad got severely dehydrated while he was working on the car in the middle of the AZ sun, so he almost keeled over. Needless to say, we didn't make it to Disney that year and had to stay in a scary scary little Arizona town.
What's your biggest irrational fear?
What's your biggest irrational fear?

First trip overseas, I was 24 and a little nervous abuot going. The first night in London we went to a neighborhood pub near our hotel and I went to use te toilet, which was of course downstairs. It was realyl solitaryfeeling down there; a door at the top of the stairs, one entering the vanity area of the restroom, and another leading to the stalls...
And the lights went out. It was pitch black down there, and the longest 2 minutes of my life, just standing there in the dark waiting for the axe murderer. I seriously intended to stand there until Jenny (who was in the Marines at the time and my only traveling buddy) noticed I was missing, but I finally worked up the courage to sprint (SPRINT!) up the stairs and immediately felt like a dumbass for freaking out.
EDIT: um, biggest irrational fear? I'll go with axe murderer. Ever since I was little, sometimes I'll just get this bug in my brain that says, "they're coming for you!" And I can't sleep. I mean, I know if happens, but cer crashes are far more common and I'm not scared of them...
Ever been lost in a foreign country?

Only slightly, we were unsuccessfully trying to find a restaurant in the old town of Cancun and got a bit turned around. I haven't been abroad much, so that's the best I've got. Feel free to add a more interesting story if you'd prefer to pass on this question:
Do you love Matchbox cars as much as I do?
I've currently got a Maseratti Quattroporte, BMW Z8, Ferrari 456 GT and a Mini Cooper at my desk. Not a bad little stable, iissm.

I don't like them as much as you do. In fact, I didn't even know you liked them as much as you do.
Better abbreviated phrases: 20th century (lylas, swak, bff) or 21st centruy (iimssm, lol, imo, bff)?
- Mere "Marya and I missed our train stop in Lyon, France, where we were supposed to meet the 2 people we were there to see and didn't know the last name of the guy we were staying with and even if we did, he had just moved in and didn't have a phone or cell phone -- and oh, I don't speak French and Marya was too shy to say anything -- but they found us at the next stop" 1975
