Friday the 13th

Did you know that paraskevidekatriaphobia is the fear of Friday the 13th and Triskaidekaphobia is the fear of the number 13?  Do you have any fears?  How about Trypanophobia- The fear of injections. Or ailurophobia- Fear of cats. 

Do vampires have Alliumphobia? That's the fear of garlic.  If you eat a lot of PPJ then you don't have Arachibutyrophobia, which is the fear of peanut butter sticking to the roof of the mouth. 

Hopefully you don't have Bibliophobia (Fear of books)!  Being the teen librarian, I am happy that I don't have Ephebiphobia- Fear of teenagers.  For a very long list of phobias check out The Phobia List.   See you in the library!
