Fragrances You Love and Hate...

I was born anosmic...means I have no sense of smell at all.

Every day someone, somewhere will say "here, smell this".

There are so many things I would love to smell

A girl
Food cooking
Baking bread
Grass
Girls
Tar
Woodland
Gas
Fire
Did I say girls already?
The Beach
Myself
The countryside after rain
Girls
My family
My house now that I've stopped smoking
My cat
Gunpowder
Friends
et al

It's odd...it's hard to explain a smell. Remember that scene in Mask where the guy explains how something feels to a blind girl to explain a sight? Well it's even harder to explain a smell.

Smell is our most primal sense... it's linked to the amygdula, which is our reptilian brain. (I'm sure someone will correct me on this and I would love to know more...where does this anosmia come from??)

I so envy y'all yer sense of smell.
