So what are you smelling RIGHT now?

We already know what you are reading, and what you are doing. But what are you smelling while you are reading and doing what you are doing?

I am reading the instructions on the box of a microwave dinner of Chicken Tikka Masala, and doing a bit of fretting about whether it says "3.5 minutes at high" or "35 minutes at high".

I am smelling burnt cardboard.

What are you smelling RIGHT now?

Oscar (one of my dogs) is sitting up against me, occasionally pushing his head up against my face. Unlike Maggie (who usually smells like corn chips and, for some reason since the operation, a little like disinfectant), Oscar smells like soy sauce or miso soup. His ears smell a little like white vinegar, but that's because we clean his ears with a white vinegar solution.

Cheers,
Marc

You do realize, you can never, ever show up at a 'get acquainted e-book reader get together? After this post? People will look at you and say "Oh, yeah, your the guy that farts first thing in the morning!"

Cat pee (note to self ... clean litter boxes immediately after you finish breakfast); and

A hint of sweat, but then I just got in from walking the dogs and it is both hot and humid outside.

Can't even smell the paint anymore. I must be getting used to it.
