I've decided that for every new period in my life...new house, new job, new boy, new city, state, country, continent, etc...i will adopt a new smelly good product such as lip gloss or lotion. this way each period in my life can be linked with a specific smell and when the period is over I can summon it from the depths of my mind by simply recreating the smell...you know that thing that happens when you catch a whiff of a familiar smell and a whole set of emotions is tagging along piggy back style. i love that. so i'm going to manipulate it. gee, aren't i clever?
so my new period is this: new house (which includes many future summer days up on the roof, parties as often as I can throw them, and sweet green walls) new job, new friends kind of,(and even some old friends that are like new--Bonnie) geriatric pool summer days with Lauren just around the corner, and reading excessively
my new smell: coconut lime verbena lotion....mmmmm
