    I really wish my (seemingly?) involuntary "startle reaction" could be voluntary and I would volunteer myself to stop.

    More like this gif I'm posting. Though I'm not a fainting goat, people have told me I'm like one of these goats at times :

    Yes, I often jump up in the air and I have fallen down at times. :)



    And for some reason, I really like your gif choice. Hmm . . . I wonder why? Ha! ;)

    I am easily startled too.  People are always apologizing for scaring me when they didn't do anything.

      Don't act so shocked, Baby Jane!  You know, that’s really unfair of you because I always and constantly tell you that I could be dropping by your place at any time on any day of the week, rain or shine, no matter what season it is, day or night, no matter what you might happen to be doing at the moment, clothed or naked . . .

  • I would like to be able to slow my heart rate. My heart reacts too strongly to too many things. :(

    The one that occurs during horizontal bungee-jumping. I'd like it to last longer.
