stupid susan trick #59

So I was at work the other day, sitting at my desk in my cube and every once in awhile I would get a whiff of someone's fragrance. And each time I would think, "Oh, that's so pretty. I wonder who got a new fragrance...I'll have to find out who it is, cause I'd like to try it out myself." All day long, I would catch little whiffs of this perfume wafting through my cube and wonder where it was coming from. So, the next morning after my shower, I'm going through my routine...pull out my deodorant, pop off the cap, start to put it on and I think, "Oh, that's so pretty...I really like that fragrance...hey...wait a minute..." It dawned on me that I had purchased a new deodorant, because my other tried and true wasn't so tried and true anymore. I had worn it for the first time the day before...so every time I turned my head, I was actually getting a whiff of my own armpit.

...which, I guess is a good thing that it was at least pleasant.

...i'm very scared for myself...

LOL, so it really was a case of "smell ya later!"

And aren't you glad it was a good smell? Once I was in line at my least favorite WalMart. I shook my head while in line, looking down on the families who clearly didn't have control of their dirty little children. And somebody smelled badly, like spoiled milk. I was disgusted. Until I got to my car and realized that the spoiled milk smell had followed me...because it was on my pants! I'd forgotten that I'd spilled some milk while at a picnic earlier in the day. Embarrassing!
