i would sit on the counter in the bathroom and sit in front of the mirror talking to my reflection actually thinking someone was on the other side..

When we were small, I convienced my little brother that our reflections in the mirror were our exact opposites and that they were all evil. His name is Sal so I told him that his reflection was named Las and that Las was an evil demon who would do him harm if he ever did anything to make him angry. A few weeks later we went on vacation and our hotel room had an entire wall that was one big mirror. Poor Sal was petrified and when my mom found out why she made me tell him the truth. However, I think he still believed that reflections were evil for sometime after that since I did see him run really fast past mirrors a few times after that.

I used to believe there was a tony ballerina under the drain of the tub that made the water spin when it drained.

When I was younger, I used to believe that if I didn't sleep with all of my limbs concealed by the blanket, a man with an axe would come in the middle of the night and chop them off.

When I was little, sometimes my mom would let me use her bathroom (to take bubble baths with my Barbies). Sometimes, I see thin, brown, coiled layers in the toilet bowl. I would get terrified, thinking that there was a disgusting snake living in our pipes who came up into the toilet to shed his old skin. Actually, these thin, coiled layers were shavings from my mom sharpening her eye pencil and forgetting to flush it away.

I believed until I was 17 that blankets were inherently warm. They seriously aren't. They don't generate heat at all.

when i was about 7, my family moved. All i knew was that we were living in one house one day and another the next.

As a result, for a long time i thought that the way people moved was to put some stuff in the trunk of their car and drive around until they found a house they liked; as in 'i want this one' and its yours

When my daughter was little, she used to think that the gurgling noise made by the bathwater going down the drain was the result of a very thirsty dragon that lived in the sewer.
Too cute!!

for some dumb reason, I used to think that after you took a bath, you had to drain the tub and refill it with some special concoction for your skin and you had to soak in it. This little after-bath thing was called a "nine". I have no idea where I got that idea from.
