i'm scared of heights

i found out about 3 years ago that i was scared of heights. i had to shoot pictures from the outstretched ladder of a fire truck while i was an intern at the paper i'm working at now. it wasn't really that high up, just scary for some reason.

today i came full circle. i shot pictures from the roof of the hospital of this guy fixing their sign. just stepping out onto the roof gave me shaky legs. i was terrified to peer over the side, as you can see.

and it really shouldn't have been a big deal. i know i was pretty well protected. i wasn't going to fall off the building. my body just freaks out now.

i used to jump off 30 ft. bridges into rivers. i used to jump out of trees into water. i used to get too close to the edge when we went to cliffs at state parks.

but i can't do it anymore. my body just can't handle it. it kind of ticks me off.




p.s. - amy winehouse shares a birthday with me. she is one year younger. she looks really old.
