Funny Phobias

I read this book, What Are You Afraid Of?, for an English class. It's a book of short stories about people with phobias. I am now writing my response paper to the book and I found some phobias I wanted to share with you. Let's be grateful we don't have these:
Menophobia- Fear of menstruation.
Arachibutyrophobia- Fear of peanut butter sticking to the roof of the mouth.
Cibophobia- Fear of food.
Coprastasophobia- Fear of constipation.
Luiphobia- Fear of lues, syphillis. (okay, so we don't want an STD, but I thought of you guys knowing, like I did, that the people of Grey's Anatomy do NOT have this phobia).
Trichopathophobia or Trichophobia- Fear of hair. (maybe after living with THIGHS)
Sinophobia- Fear of Chinese, Chinese culture. (thank you, you guys)
Soceraphobia- Fear of parents-in-law. (maybe?????? not yet anyway. :) )

Love you guys. Have a safe and phobia free day!
Love, Nog

From the THIGHS

Sam sent me a letter thanking us for her birthday package. She wanted me to post her responses on the blog, so here goes!
My Beloved Roommates:
Thanks so much for the Awesome B-day notes. It made me feel loved. You guys are the best!
Sarahtops: I laughed so much at your story about the guy and his nipple. You always have the best stories. I'm happy to hear you're watching out for your boobs! I told your story to my companions and they were horrified -they didn't laugh at all this made ME horrified! I was disappointed I thought I'd trained them better in the 2 months we were together.
Megnog: I'm very disappointed to hear that you joined the ranks of the evil Elms management. Try not to let the cleaning checks get you down. And remember you're a member of WOFYB Academy-you can POO in ANY TOILET YOU WANT!
Phyllis: Thanks goodness you're out of the clutches of those 18 year olds. Stay social, even though you're living at home and you and I will have to have an Austen marathon when I get back. If it has your stamp of approval then we'll add "Becoming Jane" to the list. By the way did you get the letter I sent you in the MTC? Oh, and I saw your brother. He was at one of the Fireside's. I didn't know Barbara's dad was the MTC mission president! It was pretty awesome for me because this one ELder likes to joke that he and President Boone are best friends because he spoke to him while getting lunch in the cafeteria. So we like to brag that we're even better friends with the Boone's because Sister Boone recognized us in the hall. It really clinched it whenI could brag that I'd attended their daughter's wedding reception! I'm glad I ran into Arid (she started, then crossed out Aar). I hope he told you I love you, cause that's the message I gave him to pass along.
Annie: Your stories were hilarious. I hope everything goes well with the ice cream, let me know if "you two" hit if off. :) I have higher hopes for the Gold medalist.
Face! So one of the other sister missionaries in our zone recognized me her 1st day as having lived in the Elms when she did. Her name is Caitlin Ritter and she lived right across from us with Maggie and Marissa and them. She remembered my 1st name and everything-and I didn't remember her at all. I still don't actually. I've kind of tried to block that ward from my memory. I thought you might appreciate my success.
Love you all, miss you all,
Hermana Thighs

BECCA GARDNER:

Becca's career was launched with a role in "An Unfinished Life". She continues to live in Lake Tahoe with her mother, father, brother and 2 sisters.

A He/She?

So the episode of Grey's Anatomy in the second season where there's the kid who starts out the episode as a girl and then ends it as a boy- is the actor/ress a girl or a boy?

Colon Deprivation

I was in the Bookstore the other day and I saw a book titled "Artemis Foul: The Lost Colon." Upon looking closer, I realized it was "The Lost Colony." I was very disappointed. Ah, the good ol' days of the colon.

A Man Thighs Moment

About 10 o'clock tonight I took a shower. So after I'm sitting in my room on the couch, in my bathrobe, glasses on, combing my hair, all while watching Grey's Anatomy. I realized that I was Man Thighs minus a big plate of noodles. It made me strangely happy.
Miss you all.

22 Year Old Thighs

By the way, I sent a package from all of us to ManThighs on her birthday. Her presents consisted of: floss, that painted picture from Weston for when people are sick, some candy, inflatable hammers, Indian magazine headlines, Refreshment raffle tickets, a Canada pencil, our group letter, and other random stuff. I got an e-mail back from her thanking us. She said that she got a package from her family, but what she really wanted was a package from her roommates. And then she got it! Yay for us!

McDreamy Mt. Brook

So you know how in high school they come up with dumb phrases/things you do to defeat the weekly rival? Well my high school came up with McDreamy Mountain Brook. Pretty sweet. My little sister found this picture on the ground and picked up for us. She brought it home and was so excited to give it to me, almost as excited as I was to receive it. : ) I had to share.
Love,
Dr. Nanny
