My sense of smell

Most people that know me very well, know that I have a sense of smell that qualify as a super power. Yes, you heard me right. I can smell anything...from a long distance, too. This keen sense can be an attribute, or a detriment. Here are some of the things I have smelled in the past little while that have really encouraged me to post this blog.

1. Toe Jam--This is one of the most unfortunate things about smelling so well. Most people have probably, at one time or another, had the same bad experience of smelling such an "ugh". The problem here is that I smell toe jam at the most akward of times. Sitting in a meeting with a bunch of co-workers (toe jammer in flip flops). Once I get the slightest hint of this debilitating smell, nauseousness comes over me and I can't seem to shake it.

2. Food (of any type)--When I have to be frugal (or on a diet) and take a sandwich to work for lunch, it's absolutely unnecessary for everyone else in the office to have some kind of yummy pasta/red sauce compilation. Even if I smell one of those cheap, heat-in-microwave, fake pepperoni lunch pizzas...I'm swooning for that nasty crap! I'm fat people--stop making me crave the things that are the worst for me!

3. Urine--I don't have to say much here...this is disgusting!

4. Sour--Alright, let me explain this one so that you know exactly what I'm talking about. When you leave your clothes sitting, wet, in the washer for more than a day...your clothes take on this wonderfully disgusting stench. That's the sour I'm talking about! The maintenance guy at work must leave his clothes in the washing machine wet for days and days. Please, for goodness sake, when you wash your clothes, go ahead and dry them! It's much appreciated by my nose!

5. Sweat--I know that sweating is part of life and working and exercising, but come on! Deoderant is part of personal hygiene! They sell it everywhere, it's cheap, and it saves noses like mine.

If you'll just think of people (and noses) like me, next time you eat, wash clothes, or get sweaty, we would much appreciate it!

Much Love!
