Weird Fact Wednesday

The storm has passed, my town has escaped relatively unscathed and it's time for another weird fact. :)

Fact 2: Did you know that there are people in the world who suffer from Arachibutyrophobia, a "persistent and abnormal fear of peanut butter sticking to the roof of the mouth"? Imagine life without peanut-butter sandwiches?!

For some reason, I already knew the above fact but while trying to find out the correct spelling, I also came across Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia, which is "a persistent and abnormal fear of long words".

Any takers?

Birthday? Birthday? You mean Nalini's getting older? No, never, I say! Never!

Belated birthday greetings chickie! Doesn't that make it the anniversary of your first sale too?

Hugs

P.S. for some reason I can't log in as a blogger, won't recognise my password, so I'll just be anonymous for now ::sigh::

Bron - I'll forgive you this one time ;)

Miss Anonymous - me, get older? Not likely. I'm still getting mistaken for a Varsity student so all is well. And yup you're right, the anniversary of my first sale is the day before my birthday. :)

Thanks,Barbara!
