When we were leaving Chicago, we spent the last night in a hotel, and I had to leave the hotel at 10:30 p.m. because I couldn't remember if we re-lit the pilot light in the stove.(We were going back in the morning, but I was sure the place would blow up overnight)<BR/><BR/> Avitable: weird habits, eh ? That's a good idea for another post. Mind if I use that ?<BR/><BR/> DoctorMama: I saw that Scrub machine on Scrubs-that's a pretty cool device.<BR/> I'm with you on the needles, but my diabetes(and assisting with My Special lady's IVF shots) is chipping away at that(I don't have to use insulin yet, but I do have to test my blood sugar at least twice a day)<BR/> I hate talking on the phone, but I don't know that I have a phobia of it.<BR/> And I thought of one more- Putting my fingers in my eyes. I cannot handle the thought of contacts. in fact, I can't watch OTHER people deal with their contacts.It freaks me out.Paticushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04412270073568754882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11149344.post-1165287327952278152006-12-04T21:55:00.000-05:002006-12-04T21:55:00.000-05:00There was a post-office-type box at one hospital I...There was a post-office-type box at one hospital I was a student in that took your dirty scrubs and gave you clean ones. One day I dropped my scrubs in only to remember that I'd stuffed all my cash in the pants pocket. I eventually found the person with the key who was really, really mean, but did let me into the box. But I got my money back AND an extra set of scrubs.<BR/><BR/>Anyway:<BR/>Spiders<BR/>Holey things (like honeycombs)<BR/>Talking on the phone<BR/>Needles (cured by IVF)<BR/>Plus a few I'm not remembering.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11149344.post-1165265682874866862006-12-04T15:54:00.000-05:002006-12-04T15:54:00.000-05:00That is a strange phobia.

Plenty of weird habits, but no phobias.Avitablehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08541188721193079705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11149344.post-1165263837729896562006-12-04T15:23:00.000-05:002006-12-04T15:23:00.000-05:00I have that mailbox thing too, though I have never...I have that mailbox thing too, though I have never accidentally dropped something in there. I think it's because you (we)wouldn't quite know what to do should that happen. What do you do? Call the post office? Flag down a mail truck? Call the police (and wait for them to laugh at you)? <BR/><BR/>More to the point, that other thing you're carrying is likely something very important that you just used or are about to use, and you don't want to lose that.<BR/><BR/>Just theories.<BR/><BR/>As for other phobia-like things, I'm always afraid that I've left something on when I've left the house--the coffee maker, the oven. I did leave the coffee maker on once, and went all the home to turn it off. And twice I've left the oven on accidentally, but never when I've left the place. But I still worry about it. I think it stems from my fear that I'm totally irresponsible.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
