For my friends and my family

When neighbors know too much

Gnomophobia.

This is the fear of garden gnomes.

You may or may not know I have an irrational fear of lawn statues and this fear is heightened by the mere sight of a garden gnome. They are evil. EVIL!

Look at their beady little eyes and stone thin smiles. You know they are looking at you when you walk by. Tell me how does a statue creature follow your movement with its painted on eyes if it is not possessed by pure demonocity.

My dear friend (and neighbor) recently found out about my fear of said statues.

This afternoon on my way in the door after coming home from picking Brae up at day care I had a visitor waiting for me in the front flower bed.

Painted with black puffy paint were the letters "I C U Christty" I'm not sure why she wrote the extra "t" into my name but the misspelling matters not.

Fear the gnome.

Did you know...?

A town in South America is living in fear after several sightings of a 'creepy gnome' that locals claim stalks the streets at night.

And...

There is some belief that Gnomes are in fact real, such as the Gnome sightings in Argentina, though these are disputed as hoaxes by skeptics.

Really, do we even know where the whole gnome business comes from?

You know what I think? I think they have the "Napoleon complex" oh yes, they are short and so they act big. They have an attitude and they are cocky.

You know Pink Floyd wrote a song about a gnome. No good can come from such a song.
