Girl, Interrupted.

Abra Cadabra Constoputeō

Right now I am sitting in the library with somebody who is inadvertently causing my senses great offense.


The putrescent smell of soggy feet fills the air and I? Well, I cannot study.


Is it cruel of me to be writing publicly about this human? I wouldn’t tell you their name, even if I did have some way of distinguishing the perpetrator. For you see, there are more than 30 people around me and it could be any one of these studious creatures…from the stench of things, perhaps it is all 30!


For all I know, it’s “Donate-Your-Socks-to-Charity-and-then-Go-for-a-Run-in-Behalf-of-the-Less-Fortunate-But-Don’t-Forget-to-Study-When-You’re-Done Day” and here I am ranting about people’s poor hygiene choices. That would make a terrible person.


But in the case that it is not “Donate-Your-Socks-to-Charity…Day” and You, Mr. Stinky Feet Man, are reading the BLOG of a sensy-sensitive girl in Rexburg’s, then 


I have two things to say to you:


1) Odor Eater. $4.94 @ your friendly-neighborhood Wal-mart.

2) How did you happen upon my Blog today?? (I've got to know, because that is just ironic.)


Lots of Hope for You in the Future,

Ashley

Wow... I know that smell. 23 second graders in the spring of the year after a winter of soggy shoes battling deep snow.

I found you though Elizabeth Writes... found her through NieNie..... Found Nie through Pioneer Woman... found Pioneer woman through Fat Cyclist... found Fat Cyclist through .... ??? (Can't remember that many years back!) I enjoy your honest writing!

Cannon has a point. You pregnancy nose is going to be horrendous. But stinky b.o smell is the worst. Jenee and I often look horrified at each other from the smell that encompasses our room after school with singing smelly kids.

My 8 year old boy, for the very first time, has stinky feet. Those darn skater shoes. They are parked in the garage at this very moment! Need odor eaters stat. It was so funny...hubby and I couldn't figure out what stunk Friday night and sniffed around until I came upon my cute little boys feet. bummer.

Found you through lizzy writes...but small world....also know Lyndsay and Wes Johnson. Met her online through blogging and then met them in person when we visited them this summer on our way down south for vacation!

Love the blogging world, love your style and love your newlywed status. It is bringing back lovely memories of our first years. YAY!
