The stinky green, man, and some sandalwood incense. Oh, wait, what I smell LIKE, not what I smell.

Well, ok. Rightguard, overpowered by CK "Contradiction." Which fits, because I hate CK and their faux-artsy commercials and their billion dollar image campaigns and all that crap, but I love the scent. Just a LITTLE bit at a time, though, or it's too much and it REEKS.

At the moment, hot paper coming off the fax machines.

Machine oil and plywood dust, due to packing up a lathe for shipping overseas, liberally overlaid on a base-coat of some genric Egpytian deodorant picked up out of desperation on holidays (40 degrees plus weather = sweat, buckets of). I've no idea what it's called, but it smells OK and is the only thing I've got to hand right now.

Cox's Orange Pippin, young man. I can see you haven't been scrumping lately.

But aside from that, I might smell of my inexpensive aloe vera Suave shampoo (and conditioner), soon to become my inexpensive VO5 vanilla shampoo; some vanilla shower gel, which I use to shave; some aloe vera shaving gell, which I use to shave.

I used to use that rock deodorant, but have since gone back to my aluminum-whatever stuff with baby powder-scented antipersperant. My sweat used to smell plain and pretty clean, but for some reason, after taking the Buspar (and even since I've quit) my sweat has the slightest onion/garlic scent; I hope that goes away.

I also have green apple hair detangler, but I don't use that much in the summer, since my hair goes right up into a twist.

Occasionally, I'll wear perfume. Butterfly, by Hanae Mori is really pretty light. I spray it into the air and let it fall on my hair. In the winter, I love Hypnotic Poison. I could just spray that on myself, climb into bed, and pass out. It's what I imagine drugs to be like.

Cherry bark scented shampoo, Infusium23 and Sandalwood perfume from the Body Shop which I have since learned is discontinued. Fuckers.

I smell of the powdered floor-cleaner that I use to mop the stairs where I work. Supposedly it is a Natural Jasmine fragrance.

Riiiight. Some lesser known species of jasmine, perhaps. None of the jasmine that I've ever encountered were capable of stripping the skin off your nasal passages at 20 paces.

Yesterday, after a 13-hour studio shift, rummaging in the attic for the corpse of an Atari ST to coax back to life and succeeding only to blow up the monitor in a brief but rather alarming electrical fire, and according to the lovely Ms Penelope Fish-Uncle: 'cigarette smoke and old cookies, you know, just after the point where you'd eat them.'

There's no logic to the world.

Today, quite unable to tell owing to a continuing reaction to chemical smoke poisoning from yesterday, but I suspect pretty evil. Let me ask my cat.

Correction: very evil.
