Oh, God, I'm with you on the patchouli. When I worked at the bookstore, we had a chick who wore so much of it, you could smell it when she was in her car. With the windows rolled up.

Ha! Patchouli, ew, but I have been around worse...once I was scrunched by a "dirty hippie" at a crowded concert and she smelled like BO and crayons.

Snad said...

Yeah, patchouli isn't great - it burns my nose sometimes. However, I'd rather smell it - or a dirty hippie - any day than smell a single dryer softener sheet. Cough cough, Gaaaag!

Ah, Charlton Heston. Will you never stop?

Patchouli....what did I do to deserve that memory?

Beth-Read my novel, there's a character in it just like you describe.

Missy-Yikes, scrunched by a hippie, how did you ever go on? :)

Snad-We use the odorless ones.

JD-Ah youth, one day you'll know what I'm talking about.

Coaster-I'm not sure but it just seemed like the time to mention patchouli, maybe I'm working with the Karma Police.

hey, I STILL wear patchouli, so lay off! when I was in high school about 100 years ago the lunch room ladies accused me of wearing bug spray!

THIS from women who allowed flies to land in the food! I guess they didn't have any bug spray.....

Ugh, patchouli--I lived in Austin TX for a while, and it was Patchouli Central down there amongst the hippies!
