pediophobia

I have a fear of toys (pediophobia). These three toys to be exact.







I always think this one is some renegade rat with rabies. It's actually a dinosaur, if you are wondering.

I always gasp, jump, and pretty much pee my pants whenever I see these three toys. Especially when they are at the bottom of a toy box that I am rummaging through. Ugh (with a shutter)!! I just wonder who on earth thought, "I know, a toy cockroach!!! kids will love it!!" I know I know, I should just throw them away. But I feel so guilty.

I can totally sympathize with the snake toy. A while ago a guy at work came in with this toy snake and said watch this i'm going to put it outside somebodys car and see them jump when they come to it. I laughed along with him and low and behold later that day as i was walking to my car and happened to look down in front of my door. I screamed and almost peed my pants as well and my heart jumped into my chest and i look back and my wonderful co-worker is laughing his ass off. The bad thing was, was i knew he had the damn toy and it still scared the living s**t out of me. :)

Love ya, Monica

P.s. you were the one that bought the toys right? I'm just sayin :)

um... yeah, scary. I don't blame you one bit! I am deathly afraid of snakes, and when I first looked at your blog, I thought the purple one was real too.
