You Wouldn't Believe It

A couple days ago I posted about smells. Well, I was having a great short 2 mile run before work this morning and after about a mile...yup, you probably guessed it. The stink of all stinks...SKUNK!!!! UGH!!!!!

Fortunately I was not directly sprayed. However, whomever or whatever did get sprayed was probably near death. I couldn't have been much behind the spray time as the smell was overpowering (yes, tears to the eyes, gag reflex, coughing were all invoked at the same time).

What a way to kill a great run. Oh well, there is always tomorrow.

Until then, happy trails to you.

Stinky Smells

I just finished a nice 3 mile run. During the run, a diesel truck drove by and was spitting out it's exhaust. After breathing the fumes, I gagged, coughed and thought I would post the things I love to smell and not smell during a run (or any other time). Things I like to smell:

1) Nothing, just fresh air.

2) Fresh laundry drying exhaust.

3) Flowering trees in bloom.

4) Pine trees.

Things I don't like so much:

1) Skunk (duh).

2) Diesel exhaust.

3) Fertilizer.

4) Perfume/after shave.

I do have an extra sensitive olfactory nerve so that may contribute to my problem.

So, there you have it. I guess this post is like a lot of Facebook posts that are somewhat ridiculous and you think, did that person really have to share that with the world? I think now I just caught a glimpse of the beauty and stupidity of it.

Happy trails to you!
