the nose

I'm super olfactory.

Scents I love:

Garlic
Ají
my precious
Clinique Happy heart
precious's Gilette aftershave
clean clothes
the sky before it's about to rain
Lucky's (my former cat) fur
Joey's (my first cat) paws
Big White's (my sister's cat) head when she'd been drinking from the drain
my shoulders in the sunshine
Pert Plus shampoo
steak
peanut butter cookies
Thai food (with ginger)
sourdough bread
new plastic
baby products
oregano
¡BASIL!


why the theme of smells? well, yesterday I went home from work with a killer headache and nausea. What made my head start to hurt? While helping someone train he felt the need to sit incredibly close to me and shed his musk. Ew. yargle. then that combined with not only cigarette smoke but other toasty smokes made my head ready to explode. On top of that there is a tree outside the office that is in bloom and is really fragrant, which although pleasant was probably sent me over the edge into nausea so--here is the corresponding list to the one above.


fUnKs that make me want to hurl:
men other than my precious
this perfume that my mom uses when traveling
vommit
feet
overload of cigarette smoke
Opium perfume - I forget which designer it's by
the cats outside my window
Callao
most breweries
Hamilton Street, Leominster (though I honestly haven't driven there for years)
the science wing at LHS
