Oh don't worry about their remarks. They probably didn't mean anything bad by it. Sometimes people are just making small talk. I can't believe you got anything Burberry that cheap! My scarf was way more than your whole skirt! Concentrate on that. That in itself is pretty darn cool!
I say when in "clown town" be a clown..When a clown approaches you , step on their foot, poke them in the eye, squirt water on them.
If that don't work then the whiskey suggestion is pretty good..
I'll also advice an emergency medical anti-clown kit be stowed somewhere close by in case this particuliar clown festival happens to be an annual event.. Of course Xanax and whiskey would be the main ingrediants. Throw in Advil for the headache and your good to go in "Clownville"
Figgy, I just so happen to share your same phobia about CLOWNS. There are only 2 things in my life I am absolutely scared of and they are Clowns and Rats. The worst was when I was in St thomas and looked down the alley and Saw a rat the size of a Jack Russell creep out from underneath a clown hat left from the Carnivale celebration. Yipes!!! It took hours of bar therapy to overcome that image! Anyway, what helps with me it to think of that loveable chronic clown in the Simpsons KRUSTY. His foul mouthed, smoking exterior takes the edge off the giddy demonic appearance of most clowns. So there. On the fashion sense, I think BH is right, I think if I drove about 20 miles outside of portland and on a mountain road and tried to sell BURberry. I am sure most would respond with "A'int it too late in the year to pick dem?" Or "Can you make a pie or jam out of dem?" Revel in your fashion sense and find granduer that you can replay a "sick" version of "Pretty in PInk". A teacher no less in the leading role...just simply stated...rocks! peace
I am not a psychiatrist, and I dont play one on TV, but I wonder if you watched Killer Clowns from Outer Space whether that might be enough dark humor to release the phobia of clowns. However, that may have the opposite effect and just make you even less trusting of clowns.
My phobia was slugs and I would have nightmares of falling into a pool filled with slugs and suffocating because the slime blocks my breathing. I watched a local movie called "The Slug that Ate Portland". In the end, they forced the slug into the ocean and the salt killed it. I cant say how much my phobia is cured, but whenever I see a slug in my garden now, I go out of my way to get some salt. I hope I dont offend any slug lovers, but I hate slugs! - they seem like naked snails.
