Folks who know me know that I live life with a sense of fear and anxiety about random things that I constantly have to face and muster up the bravery to overcome so that I can live a great shitty fabulous life...
DOGS
CATS
FISH
ANIMALS of all kinds (even cute ones and even small ones)
DRIVING IN THE RAIN
FAILURE and SUCCESS
BEING UTTERLY ALONE
HAVING BABIES
HAVING A DISEASE
THE UNKNOWN
PAIN
NEEDLES
THE DARK...
The list goes on and on and I have spent my entire life doing things in spite of my fears. Yay pat me on the back!!! BUT...
One such fear that seems to get in the way of me being bi-coastal is that I AM AFRAID TO FLY!!!!!
I have been on tour for 2 years! On and off of planes! BUT I HATE FLYING!
HOW will I ever travel the world! (Because that is something I want to do!)
I have to go shoot this Outlaw scene in LA, but I am scared to go back! And I am on a flight at 9am...so I won't be able to induce sleep! WHAT AM I GOING TO DO!!??
I guess I will do as always...
Say a prayer, and hop on the plane. Not complain about the flight time, and thank God for all the things that happen in my life.
LIVE LIFE! MinDOG OWT!

I saw the quote below on a blog that I read today for the first time...the post is a good one. Check it out if you have a sec, the link is under the quote...
"Fear is such a powerful force. I think that it is as instinctually elemental as lust and hunger. It is everywhere, which means it is something that we need to develop a healthy relationship with.
I feel like I keep hearing the word “fearless” tossed about as if it is a great attribute. That’s ridiculous. No one is without fear, and those who claim to be are either deceiving themselves, or you. Oddly, people keep referring to me as “fearless,” which is so very wrong. I am filled with fear. Tons of it. But I have a very good relationship with it, and that may be why people confuse me for fearless, which I am not."
