So, I have a highly developed sense of smell. This means I smell things before most people (unless they also have a highly developed sense of smell), and can usually identify smells. This has occasionally been a problem for me, like the time I smelled dog poo in my car. I didn't smell it in my house, only my car. And I don't own dogs. I checked my shoes and they were clean, and I thought it unlikely that a neighborhood dog would have opened my locked car door and then pooed on my newspaper-covered car floor. I thought maybe it was on the tire, but I never proved this theory, so the mystery went unsolved.
Then, today, I was driving in the car with my husband and I smell vomit. And I know you know what smell I'm talking about because it's very distingishable. Since I'm not around children, who are normally the ones to vomit places other than the toilet, I'm not quite sure were this smell came from. Again, it was not my shoes, or my hands (yes, I check there too). And not even the smell of fresh bagels could get rid of it. And even as I sit here at work, I still smell the smell. Needless to say, I feel a little nausiated. I'm hoping it's not some chemical in my brain combining with the residual whipped cream that got all over me last night. (pie in the face. You know, for the play.) I also hope I don't have a brain tumor or something like that.
