Phobias (Blog Roll post)

This is the latest post on the blog roll. The assignment this week is to talk about phobias, so...

--//--


Phobias. I got 'em in spades. (No, I'm not that neurotic, I just have a healthy respect for things and situations that give me the creeps. ;-)

So here's the short list, in no particular order:

1) Spiders. I've gotten over this one as I've gotten older, for the most part, but I loathe black widows.

2) Large crowds.

3) Bodies of water--lakes, pools, you name it. I can't swim (I had a near-drowning accident when I was ten) so any large body of water makes me very nervous. That goes double when Roisin's around.

4) Closed in spaces. I got stuck in an elevator that got stuck between the floors and it was four or five of the longest minutes of my life.

5) Needles. I don't care if you have to give me an IV or draw my blood, but I'm not going to watch you do it (and don't insist, unless you want me to go horizontal.)

That's mine, for now. If I think of others, I'll add them. :-)

Well if it makes you feel any better, compared to my fear, you look totally sane and completely well-adjusted! :-)

Hah! I'm heading over to see yours now...maybe we'll have to thumb-wrestle for whose phobia is worst. ;-)

About Me

My photo
Wife, mom of a preemie, follower of the old ways, lover of anything Irish or Celtic, history buff, trivia nut, Star Trek and Ren Faire geek and costuming fiend. Offer me coffee or chocolate and world peace is assured. Or at least I'll try really hard. :) I also believe in deleting spam. So, to the person or persons who keep leaving me comments in Chinese (along with links to what I can clearly tell are Chinese porn sites) stop it. It's bad karma, to say nothing of being really, really rude.
