smell | A Secret Thread

I see so many fucking movies set back in ages where indoor plumbing was not even a twinkle in the eye of the greatest minds of the time… and there are sex scenes. These sex scenes are always so perfectly portrayed like some kind of PG rated porno film… but there are so many historical realities of the time that are not reflected. Even remotely!

All it takes to bring this home to me is if I go an entire weekend without a shower, then scratch my own taint and accidentally raise my hand anywhere near my nose. I mean…. DAMN. Humans do not smell good unless we be showering or bathing every second date MAX. My nuts tell me that three days is beyond the limit for my own personal freshness. I almost want to stop scratching myself.

Blech.

I don’t know what the hell is with my senses lately; I think my sense of smell is really out of whack. In this last week, I feel like I have constantly been smelling cigarette smoke.

At work, at home, in the car… everywhere I know that no one is smoking, I keep thinking that I am smelling smoke. And, knowing that and being aware of that… I wonder if I’m going insane or that I’ve got a brain tumor.

I suppose that it’s possible that there actually IS a hint of smoke in the air from the wildfires that have been burning out of control further north from the NJLE however I am doubtful since I haven’t heard anyone else complaining about smelling smoke.

Of course, there is a third possibility; that I’ve simply been thinking too hard and I’ve burned something out in my head.
