In HS, I wore Poison (I thought the ads were neat). For a while, Thierry Mugler's Angel was my One True Perfume, and then I discovered Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab. Of course, my perfect scents from them were limited editions, so I now have to scour eBay for more bottles of Pink Moon and see if I can find another perfect chocolate scent. Apparently I am supposed to smell like a very expensive chocolate truffle dusted with pink sugar.

There is someone who takes the same bus home as me that douses themselves in a Drakkar knock-off. There's not enough ewww in the world, let me tell you.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Of course you are!

I am currently in the process of passive agressively trying to avoid my boss. Eh.

I wear mostly BPAL these days. Peony Moon or Luperci or Dance of Death most of the time, with occasional spottings of Osun or 13.

I should get a full 5ml of Eve, as it smells almost exactly like the perfume I used to blend for myself in college, when I was still light bright florals, before I went Expensive Headshop.

High school was White Shoulders. College started with the aforementioned self-blend, then wound up with Christian Dior's Dune. I went through a Dulce Vita period, dabbled in Goutal's Eau du Ciel, then a few years of L'Heure Bleue, then Lush Karma, then onto BPAL.

Sometimes, I use a blend of vanilla EO and neroli EO, when I remember it's there. And there's a single note Linden that's a lot like Eau du Ciel that I adore.

I have some random chocolate scents for when I'm in that mood.

Really, I'm a scent hound. But I don't wear much of it at all when I wear it. (I used to apply it by spraying a small amount on a damp cotton ball and then gently pressing that against my pulse points.)

Right now I mostly wear Lush's Karma perfume, though I have a few others I occasionally use.

Always Anti-fascist!

I eat that chicken bowl thing, sometimes. I know I shouldn't, but I do like it. Although, nsm for presentation reasons; it doesn't look very nice.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Shalimar. Always has been, probably always will be.

Never had one, but I'd be willing to try.

French toast with an egg and a sausage patty--all smothered in syrup. Yum. Athough I think it would make Sean cry.

Anything covered with syrup gets its own plate--no encroaching on my eggs or sausage! Even biscuits only get honey or jam, no syrup.

My favorite breakfast is the family recipe for Swedish Pancakes, with either strawberry jam or syrup. Lingonberry jam is more traditional, but before IKEA opened up in the area, it was impossible to find.
