What phobias do you have?

[cbelt3]

There are unreasoning fears that paralyze you, and there are 'cautious' reactions to potential threats.

I used to be an agoraphile. Heights ? Woo hoo ! Free climbing ? Awesome ! Jumping off cliffs into lakes 60 feet below ? Yee-haw !

Now that I know I'm very breakable, I'm more cautious. I'm not paralyzed, but I've partially frozen on a ladder 30 feet in the air a few times. Then I deal with it and get the job done. Last week I went up to the top of the CN Tower in Toronto, and stood on the 'glass floor'. A definite adrenaline thrill, but I was OK with it.

Beyond that.. black cats ? Hi Ava ! (one of our cats is black)
Bugs ? HI there ! What kind of buggie are you ?
Snakes ? Here.. let me catch you... ow !
Walking under ladders ? Sure.. ladder's in the way and it's the easiest path.
