Incense and Nonsense.
I've always had an acute smell for aromas.

I'm more concerned with how something smells versus how well it tastes or looks. Perhaps it's my stronger sense. Obviously it's not my sight since I wear glasses, or my hearing because I can't hear things too clearly anymore for some reason. I'm pretty game for anything no matter how it tastes, since I'll try anything once no matter how foul it may seem. I'm not afraid to touch things either. At work I'm the only one that doesn't use gloves when washing the dishes...It's only food. But scent is always something that I've been really good at detecting.

Since I'll probably never look nice, I've always tried to smell nice. I have about twenty different cologne bottles gathered over the years. Some are heavy, some are light, and almost all are a scent that I find enticing.

I've been using a lot of incense lately. I just noticed this particular incense at work, Nag Champa. For some reason every time I smell it I'm instantly relaxed. I can't for the life of me figure out why. But everyday I've been burning it at home, before bed, and basically anytime I'm in my room. It's one of the few times where I actually feel relaxed, comfortable, and most importantly stress-free.

Me and my mom went to the Pittsburgh Mills mall and I found this nice little "Hippy" store. You know the ones that sell incense and hemp-products, tie-dye t-shirts, and Bob Marley CD's....As soon as I walked in there I smelled that familiar scent. So I purchased an actual incense plate and it came with a free box of Nag Champa incense. I also bought some other packs of Opium, China Rain, Hem Champa, Poison, and Venveno Mortal. All of which smelled pretty good. I'm currently burning the Nag Champa as I type this :)

Tschuess!

So ... I'm home sick with a nasty cold & fever!  My Car has a fever, too ... (overheated in 20ยบ temps ~ not good!) 
 
I had to car to the mechanic Tuesday for the same exact thing ... $125 later, they said it was fixed.  Yesterday, it was fine ... this morning I took my older daughter to work ... it overheated ... again!  I called the mechanic and he can't look at it today.  So ... I brought it home and figured both of us could use a day off!  It's been a difficult couple of weeks, for sure ...
 
Have you noticed that sometimes if'y things go well ... in your favor and all is well?  Then there are the times when it seems like everything is working against you?  Have you been there? 
 
Now, I am the last one to complain ... our lives here are safe, healthy (but for annoying colds etc) and sound.  I am not complaining now ... other than to say I am weary & working to keep my head going in the right direction.  I know ... this, too, shall pass ...
 
On a brighter note ...
 
 
You are 100% Pittsburgh.
