friday free for all

[synecdochic]

Now in the correct place, oops.

This post is a free-for-all for people to:

a) post links to perfume-related content they posted elsewhere (on or off DW)
b) talk about anything they want to talk about that isn't big enough for a full post
c) socialize and hang out without worrying about "off topic"
d) or anything else that comes to mind!

Goodness! Thank you... and wow, I'd never considered that at all re disappointing and data points and so many things. But it really does make sense now that you've said that.

Yeah, srsly epic enabler. And crack dealer. And monster creator.

(I am just grateful that my body seems to eat BPAL for lunch; means I won't be spending insane amounts of money on it but, rather, can keep imps around mostly for nosturbation purposes aromatherapy)

Yeah, it's a really awesome and useful way to think about many many things!

Yes, she is truly epic at sucking people into things!

My skin chemistry is variable--- it eats some scents, while some won't even take the hint after I've applied peroxide/alcohol/soap-and-water in various permutations and combinations. On the other hand, the number of things I'm allergic to does somewhat control my spending as well! Bodies, man, bodies.

Indeed! And yes! She got me sucked into reading various fics in canons I knew absolutely nothing about because of her skills as a wordsmith. But that didn't actually cost me like money! ;-)

I'm having fun learning what I require scent-wise. You can ask synecdochic about the "I am drowning in a sea of Hatta!" text I sent her yesterday morning after putting on said fragrance from the bottle and not the decant (even though I'd very carefully tilted said bottle and didn't think I had that much on my finger...). It was a lovely sea to be drowning in, though I was afraid I would gas my co-workers but apparently it had faded enough that I had to extend a wrist to my next-door neighbor for her to smell it... I did get whiffs every so often, which tells me that the hollow in my neck and such may hang onto scent better than my wrists (and was grateful for their reassuring presence... again, what is in that stuff that is so good for aromatherapy?!?).

Yes--- so far I've managed not to get sucked into Stargate because I would miss her Cammie Mitchell too much. But "Lullabye for the New World Order" got me started back into gaming fandom... and, man, worth every penny I've spent!

Mmm, I hear you about that reassurance-from-scent thing--- some days I just need a dose of whatever my current go-to scent is. And, definitely, finding The Right Scents For You is a blast! This comm in general has been so great about egging me on to try things and experiment!
