1. What unusual phobias do you have? I am 37-years-old and I am still scared of the dark. And I am scared of needles (injections) - Trypanophobia.

2. Have you ever tried to conquer them? Every time I go to the doctor and he prescribe a B12 shot or requests the nurse to draw blood I have to face my fear of needles. I just close my eyes and turn my head the other way. I face my fear of the dark every day and conquer it by having a night light :) when I go to bed.

3. Do you know anyone who has even more unusual phobias? Not that I can think of right now.

My favorite fast food place is Sonic and I also enjoy going to Taco Bell. Sonic has delicious Breakfast Burritos and I love their Smoothies. The last place I purchased fast food from was Burger King this morning. I have been riding to work each day with Steve and he likes to have breakfast every morning. Since we don't have time to eat at home, he stops at Burger King on the way to my office.

In my opinion, one of the the worst place to get fast food is McDonald's. As a kid I loved seeing the "Golden Arches" and I was always begging my parents to stop there. But as I have gotten older I have found that I like McDonald's less and less. I do break down and go there once and awhile for a McRib.
