No! I hate the phone. It scares me. It's one of my weird phobias.

Phonophobia--I kid you not. I also fear sudden, loud noises (think fireworks and bubble wrap). B.t.w., I only ran 1/2 of a marathon, not a full.

Come on. I'm not that bad. I call my mom or my sister almost every other night. And I can call technical support when I'm at lab with only a little apprehension. I just hate it when the phone rings at home or when I have to call for pizza or something.

Are you going to work on desensitizing me from sudden, loud noises too? Lots of people enjoy using this weakness to get a good laugh. During one of my rotations, the guys in the lab kept hiding dry ice in Eppendorf tubes around the lab. The pressure builds as the ice evaporates, making a little bomb as the top of the tube pops off. I literally hid under my desk, much to their amusement.
