If you get confused, your best bet is Google. Enjoy.


There weren’t many things I liked to think about. The some of them are cheating, crime, pain, pets that shed, pets that have scales, any kind of pet, and death. Life has a very funny way of making me encounter each and every one of those up close and personal. See, the thing is, you have to understand who I am to relate. So, let’s start with the basics. My name is Karri Lybronski and I suffer from Ailurophobia, Agraphobia, Algophobia, Apotemnophobia, Chronophobia, Coulrophobia, Ichthyophobia, Kosmikophobia, Placophobia, and Pyrophobia.

Before you get the wrong idea I just want to make one thing clear, my name is pronounced [CAR.E]. Oh, yeah, also I have irrational fears of random things that keep me from being a normal, participating member of society. My fear of cats and fish kept me from having any pets and some people find that unusual. Having the fear of fire, pain, and rape were understandable until I mentioned my phobia of people with amputations. Ah, but the real weird fear is the best one. I, Karri Lybronski, have a phobia of time. How and why? I don’t know. If I am reminded of what time something is, I freak out. I get really concerned at first, then I become scared of the oncoming time, but then it turns to terror. I don’t own any clocks. I also haven’t been to a circus before. Well, I have been once when I was twelve, but when the smoke machine went off and the acrobats and clowns stepped out I cried and screamed for an exit. So, those are my disadvantages of life. Wait, no, I also have a terrible fear of cosmic phenomenon and tombstones. I think that’s it though.

Yeah, my life has always been lived by planning my steps carefully. There was no such thing as “carpe diem” in my sad life. I had to be home schooled by my mother because the bells telling us to switch classes made me panic about what time class ended, what time I had to be at my next class, and how much time I had between each class. I’ve never been to the zoo because if I took one foot into the reptile house or aquarium it would send me running. I’ve never been to a friend’s bonfire party because I always thought that the fire would catch onto my hair and burn my scalp. Oh, and if I ever heard anyone even joke about the sun over heating and exploding resulting in our planet melting and getting lost in space sent me running for a bunker under my house. Do not even kid around when it comes to cosmic phenomenon.

I learned how to organize my life so that I didn’t have to deal with any of these phobias and it was going perfect. Nothing disrupted my calm lifestyle. The summer before I would attempt to go to college the impossible happened.

Whoever thought my apartment would mysteriously burn down? Oh, and the same week two black alley cats follow me home. What are the chances of my car crashing into the river and catfish flooding into my car through the open window? In the span of a week I am truly tested in every way. Especially, when I meet a sweet guy who just so happens to be missing a finger. How am I supposed to handle the fact that he works part time as a clown in our local circus? But, the worst thing of all, what happens when my mom gets cancer and only has a few more months to live? Does her limited time send me running for my life? Will I even be able to face her funeral knowing there are tombstones there? I am being tested. I will probably fail. We just have to wait and see if the cards are in my favor.
