I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I don't wear any scent because I'm lazy and don't care that much

This is me. I have some rosewater that I might splash on if I think of it, but I hardly ever think of it.

I can't even.

So, if one had a lot of pictures to submit to Venus, should one perhaps put a zip file up somewhere and submit the location for download to Venus?

::happy sigh::

So now there's a baby shower happening for one of the managers here and people are stopping by to ask me when I'm going over. Dudes, I chipped in. I have to be social with you now? Grumble, grumble, enforced cheeriness with work people, blah.

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda

I can't wear "real" perfumes due to scent sensitivity, but I'm a fan of body sprays (when I'm not too lazy). My favoritest was Victoria Secret's apple scent, but lo, it has been discontinued, as has the Country Apple at B&BW. Current staple is Love Spell from VS. I like to put it in my hair, because I think the scent lasts longer that way.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

I call children "sweetie" all the time and have no objection to seeing it used as a friendly appellation among people who know one another well. But part of it is the older man/younger woman dynamic and my bristling at anything that smacks of unasked-for, gratingly jocular fake-paternalistic attitude and the implied condescention that goes along with it, *especially* when it's used at work place. It just makes me see red.

yes, this

I wear a perfume by Jo Malone that's Lime, Basil and Mandarin scented. I just like it. Sometimes I forget to put it on, but I don't worry about it like if I forgot to put lotion on my feet or someting.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I prefer Organza, from Givenchy. But I've been too lazy to wear it since last fall.

Claudia Black should be on Venus!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

The only scent I use is Lush's Flying Fox temple balm. The combination of jasmine and ylang-ylang is heavenly.

hip deep in pie

I don't wear scented anything because I work in a scent-free workplace. (As are most places in Halifax.)

Wow, really?

Most places might be an exaggeration, but all gov't buildings, hospitals, schools, universities. There's also a pesticide ban. There was a big environmental illness problem at a hospital in the 1980's, and it left a legacy of environmental sensitivity awareness.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Current staple is Love Spell from VS. I like to put it in my hair, because I think the scent lasts longer that way.

Amusing note - San Francisco apparently has some very strict codes about how much scent a stripper can put on (maybe some councilmen got tired of being caught by their wives?). Now, the dancers can only put the scent in their hair, which has led to EVEN MORE hair-tossing.

Do you know how many times a day I think "Only in California" to myself? Many.

I wear Stella McCartney's perfume, just because the first time I smelled it I absolutely loved it. I usually avoid scented things altogether as they tend to make me headachey, but I've made an exception for Stella perfume.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Let's see - can I link to this picture directly?
