I feel the need to confess my greatest fear.....toads! Toads and frogs! Ugh a shiver just ran down me. I know its dumb and irrational but I cant even walk by them.

when I was a little kid, a frog jumped on my head and after that i was a bit scared of them, but I knew exactly why, it was that head-jumping frog that did it.
anyway, up in port hedland there are frogs everywhere. i had to go up there and there were frogs in the motel room. i hardly slept, waiting for them to jump on me. :d
(my cap lock is not working). we rang reception and said 'our rooms are full of frogs and they went like "yep, so?"

I would have slept in my car! Sometimes I come home in the dark and a fat toad will be sitting in the walkway to the house...I'm embarrassed to say that I call my boyfriend in the house to come out and throw it somewhere before Ill walk by.

I reckon those frogs would still get you, they were all over. They weren't toads, they were teeny little frogs. still creeped me out, given my 'frog history'.

EDIT: we changed motels and the other one didn't have any frogs in the rooms.

When I was 5-12 years old I use to jump into ditches and lakes to catch bull frogs and walk throughout my neighborhood trying to find toads. I loved them so much. Till my grandpa told me, "Those frogs there give you nasty lumps from peeing on you, do you want nasty lumps?" I never touched them again!

Ive always heard that too! Frogs/toads will give you warts, lol.
I keep my phobia a closely guarded secret. I NEVER tell children that I'm afraid of them, that would just give them something to torture me with.

Once I was at a horse show which I had entered my Palomino in the western trail class. This was a fun show that all proceeds went to some charity. I don't remember which one but my point is that was a more laid back affair than sanctioned shows.

So, anyway, I'm all big-headed thinking my beautiful Palomino will ace this class as we had done this many, many times and we were pretty dang good. Shane, the horse, knew his job and did it with just enough flair that people put down their cell phones to watch.

Oh my, we were really turning, backing, sidepassing, rollbacking, and going through the obstacles with finesse that would have made Clinton Anderson stand on the fence and watch. We came to the final obstacle, the wooden bridge. No problem I thought as I flexed my index finger to tell Shane where to go. And my mighty Palomino padded his way toward the slightly humped obstacle. Like a pro he put his nose where he wanted to go but he took a few steps and came to a dead halt.

The smile on my face froze. I clucked softly and Shane planted all four feet like a mule. My big-head began to deflate as utter embarrassment flooded my brain. Gently, I applied my heels to Shane's sides. He gave me a head shake that all equestrians understand as a flat-out-no-way-am-I-going-through-that.

Now I know my horse well and I suspected that he detected a defect in the structure. So I leaned over to study the structure. All seemed well then I spotted it.

A horse-eating monster that might possibly swallow us whole and spit out the saddle. A scaled demon with a gaping jaw whose teeth drooled acid. Big eyes that had laser vision.

The mighty monster was a two inch toad.

He sat proudly on the first board of the bridge soaking up the rays and meditating on all things that had wings. I saw his moist eyes watching us. Shane snuffled softly. Licking his froggy lips, the toad ambled under the bridge.

At that point, Shane stepped on the bridge. A 1500 lb animal who was held hostage by a two inch toad.
