it is so strange to me when people tell me they never had an ancient egyptian phase…like, what did you even do during your childhood? 

this is oddly specific?? and over 3000 people relate???

That egyptology book was too golden and shiny to resist

I had like a dinosaur phase, a vampires phases, an Egyptian phase, granted they are all still a thing for me, but I don’t get people who didn’t have an Egyptian face either…

I started with a Greek phase.  I remember my mom making me ask the librarian what kind of books to read when I got too old for picture books.  She pointed at a relief sculpture thing on the wall of the library and asked if I liked horses and would like to read a story about a flying horse.  As an avid My Little Pony fan, I agreed, readily.  This turned into an Egyptian phase and an Irish phase (I even tried to teach myself Gaelic) and now I just eat cultural information like it’s going extinct. I’ll always be obsessed with the ocean, I surely have had a mermaid phase and a selkie phase and a sea otter phase and an octopus phase (er….that might be more than just a phase….) and I werewolf phase (but only if they change into wolves and not wolf-people hybrids) and I have an anti-vampire bias that I’m trying to get over (Is that wierd?)  I love learning stuff, and I’ll never understand people who don’t.
