i too am looking forward to poking around on your site.
your list of phobias reminded me of a this american life episode i heard last week, with a segment about a disabled man who writes a zine called "fears of your life," which is just a list of everything he's afraid of. an actor reads some of it aloud on TAL and it's classic... you can listen here:

Hi there! Thought I'd pop on by and say hello! (Giao, I'm following you!) I found your site via sweetpea's as well, and this is such a treat! So much eye candy going on around here.
Can't wait to return and explore some more, and I just have to say that the feet pic is just DARLING! Oh my gosh that is so sweet! :)

Hi there, I just found your blog via Jes at Sweetpeas. What a super fun post! I'm afraid I suffer from a lot of the same phobias. Especially Emetophobia. Ewww.
Fun blog, will be back!!
