Animal Attraction
My roommate Mandy, a small blond heavy equipment operator from the middle of Iowa, is engaged to the electrician on our Det. She’s recently decided that she’s going to end the relationship because he can’t manage to make her happy and because she’s starting to figure out that it’s his fault not hers. She plans her exit strategy every day and tells me stories illustrating his faults for hours. I subtly encourage her to leave him.
Last night at a barbeque infested with mosquitoes she came over to me in a mild fit:
You know for the last two years I’ve been putting on lotion and perfume thinking he would like it. And he never said anything. Sometimes I’d ask and he’d say, "Yea, you smell really good. I like that." But I always had to ask. But tonight, I put on tropical bug spray and he when he came up to me he told me how good I smelled. It’s bug spray! He wants me to smell like bug spray? He’s stupid!
I have to agree.

gotta give the girl props for at least noticing!
When you get a chance to e-mail, will you send me you address?
and did you manage to pack a French press or no?
She wanted him to notice her and now she finds out he's attracted to a repellant.
How fucking ironic is that?
I raised a pack of boys and they could give a rats ass about smells unless it's meatloaf, homemade bread or the smell of turkey seducing them out of bed on a Thursday morning.
