Thank God for my friend Andrea. The one thing I really like about Andrea is how she doesn’t judge her friends unless they do something to hurt her. So I can talk to her about my phobias without fear of being ridiculed. Andrea is also a caterpillar phobic which helps. We end up having these conversations about how we’re simultaneously revolted and fascinated by caterpillars.
When my sister was little she used to stomp on caterpillars and look at the coloured (usually green) caterpillar guts under her shoe. Ugh. There’s no way I’m going to get that close to a caterpillar. I even have problems with killing cockroaches. My neighbour likes to squish them between her fingers. She doesn’t care if she gets cockroach guts all over her long fingernails but I do.
