It's raining here today and I'm wearing my favourite shoes. I got them at a bazar in Augsburg. Ken bought them for me because he accidentally poured red paint all over my birks. I told him they were still wearable but couldn't resist accepting his offer--they are such great shoes. Black ankle-high wellies with blue stitching. Come to think of it I'm dressed pretty much all in black. Black jacket, black undershirt, black skirt, black tights... While it is a grey day and I am all in black I feel peaceful. Listening to the Smiths on days like today flood my senses with a lot of nostalgia. My sense of smell seems hightened lately. I wonder why? Maybe all the other senses are a little lazy today so smell wins out. Either way I am really bothered by the overpowering smell of fabric softener. I hate fabric softener. It really bugs me when people overuse this item also because it makes their clothes slimy....I dated a guy who was obsessed with it. He would use fabric softener AND dryer sheets. I hated the smell of his skin right after taking off clothes--downy, slimy, detergent-y. (I started thinking about this because my tights accidently got into Helaines wash and she uses a TON of fabric softener and well I didn't realize it until I got to work and I can smell the downy or whatever wafting from my legs...ew...)
Aren't I in a pleasant mood today...
I also dislike:
egg yolks, acrylic nails, sitting down, headaches, vacuuming, sitting in the backset, caterpillars, zoos, Hummers, people who drive Hummers, people who ONLY drink Starbucks, 2% milk, anything grape-flavoured, kitty litter, the Ohio Turnpike, layovers, fluorescent office lights, push-up bras, baseball, soda-pop, salad dressing, ikea, shopping malls, shopping.....I guess the list could go on and on. But those are the ones that round out the top 20.
