This thing on my face...

So I have a very keen sense of smell. Abnormal, you might call it. I can sniff out things that the average person can't smell... but really, it's not a gift. I've always been this way. What a blessing I grew up on a dairy farm... lots of lovely smells there! I wanted to vomit every time my dad came in for the night. The smell was atrocious! I would go into details, but... yeah, I won't. And then when I got pregnant with Ethan, my sense of smell intensified with a vengeance and has never gone back to normal.

At this point I have to fill you in on the worst smell ever.... liquefied green pepper. Probably the only smell that actually made me vomit! There are several smells that make me gag and heave, but this one actually made me run for the toilet.

So this weekend we had soccer tournaments. Briyanna was playing and spent the entire weekend at the other Brianna's house. No change of clothes or anything. After the game on Saturday, every girl on the team headed out to the other Brianna's house for a hot tub party and just having fun. I showed up a little late and got the grand tour of the house. Downstairs where the girls undressed smelled like a locker room.. yes, I heaved, but not bad. While I was there, I got called by 3 of the other girl's moms and was asked to bring them home. Yeah, sure, no problem. When it was time to go, I rounded them all up and and picked up the van a little and noticed an awful smell. The other Brianna had several dogs and I had been petting them, walking through the yard... I had dogs on the brain for some reason. At first I thought it smelled like dog food, and then I changed to dog poop. But I couldn't find it and left. We had to drive in that hot van that has one window that won't roll down for 15 miles with that smell!! It was nauseating. I dropped of one girl and at that point, the smell got so bad to me that I was heaving and weaving all over the road. I had to pull over and do a shoe check on everyone and still I couldn't find it. AWFUL!!! We made it home without wrecking, amazingly!

Last night, several hours after we got home, I had to wash my hands after I touched chicken. And in the laundry room I found... the smell.



EDIT: It was pointed out to me that I need to clarify something here. Briyanna didn't step in dog poop... her feet/ shoes/ socks smell like dog poop after playing soccer for 2 days. She thinks its pretty funny.
