My Eyes Are Burning!!

The last few days I have encountered some seriously stinky people and it's freakin' driving me nuts!!!!!! THIS is the type of thing that'll make me loose it! Big stuff I'm fine with........stupid daily stuff.......SNAP!

Yesterday I was at lunch with a girlfriend and an older woman walked past our table. Within two minutes of her walking past our table, my eyes started burning! Her perfume was SO overwhelming that it immediately offended my allergies/sinus'. Hell the sad thing is we were sitting in a booth in the bar area since we both smoke. This woman's scent was so strong you could smell it over the cigarette smoke. And not only did it stink it lingered! UGH!!!! THAT is the worst!! Thank goodness we were finished eating. We had to leave soon after the woman walked by because I couldn't take it. My eyes were watering and burning from her scent. Here's a hint.......if your perfume/cologne is SO strong that people's eyes are burning, it may be a horrid freakin' scent. OR, and I hate to state the obvious, but you may have TOO MUCH CRAP ON!!!!!!!

6am on Tuesday morning I'm at work in the breakroom getting a cup of coffee. A lady who works in the office was there making her breakfast. Microwave bacon and a bagel. I'm not even done pouring my coffee and over the smell of the bacon...........her perfume! REALLY?! When you have on perfume that overtakes the smell of bacon, ya may have too much on!! OR maybe it's just some rancid perfume! I mean, bacon is a pretty powerful smell!

Last Saturday I had to go into work for a bit. A guy that works for our sister station had walked into the building a few seconds before me. As I walk in the building I walk into a flippin' mass of cologne. He had SO much on that it trailed behind him. He was in his office down the hall from my desk and I could STILL smell it. Yuck! Not attractive boys! Chicks dig a guy that smells good but not a guy that bathes in cologne. Your NOT supposed to shower with it!

Two weeks ago I had to go to the doc's for a swollen eye. Thought it was pink eye but it turned out just to be some type of allergic reaction. I have no doubt that the interns who were in the building that week drenched in perfume contributed to the breakout. As I am in the waiting room an elderly woman comes into the waiting room. She smelled SO bad that my eye immediately began to tear up. I had to ask the nurse to let me wait for the doc in a room in the back. How could she not know how strong she smelled??? Killed me!

Now as I stated above, I am a smoker. Cigarette smoke is stinky....I am aware of this. I am a considerate smoker though. If I'm with friends that do not smoke I will ask before I light up. If someone in the group asks me not to smoke, I won't do it. It's rude. I'm more than happy to take my nasty habit outside. I've got no problem with this. I've got serious allergies (the smoking is not so good for them) and totally understand people who are sensitive to smells. I KNOW that the smoke is not a pleasant smell....I get it. How do others NOT get that they stink?? Are they THAT clueless??

Here's my tip for the day people: SPRAY, DELAY, AND WALK AWAY!!!! Don't pour the flippin' bottle on yourself. When you put on the cologne/perfume and wonder to yourself if you have enough on..........YOU HAVE ENOUGH ON!!!!!!

Have a nice day! :)
