I have never considered myself to be a phobia person. Sure, I have fears. But I never thought I struggled with anything to the extent that I could be prescribed as having a phobia… until today. I think I’m afraid of toilets that hang on the wall. Not urinals… but the actual commodes that are just attached to the wall… no base of any kind.
I’m a fairly big-boned guy. Unfortunately, I usually go into a stall with a purpose, so turning back is not an option. So, I have to face my phobia. However, unlike other paranoid phobia people, I really do have a legitimate justification for my phobia. Am I really supposed to believe that a little caulking will hold me up? There better be some steel rebar or something running through that commode. Am I the only one?
What are your phobias?

Shane,
I just read this blog – did you mean to say steel rebar? Rhubarb is a fruit/vegetable – the jury is still out as to which it is. I also understand that with your sense of humor it may have been an intentional mistake – meant to cause a chuckle – if that’s the case, ignore this comment, but on the slight chance that you actually ’slipped up’….as your Mother, I felt I needed to respond.
Love you!

Uh……. yeah! It was meant to be a joke! Um… I went ahead and changed it just so people wouldn’t get confused or not get the joke. But… yeah… it was DEFINITELY an intentional mistake! Seriously!
