The NFC B-Day Chat Thread

The worst smell in my memories of nasty smells had to be my dad after work. He was a mechanic at an auto dealership/repair shop. The shop wasn't ventilated -at least not enough to be noticeable- and it gets hot and extremely muggy in eastern South Dakota.

So he'd come in, surrounded by a cloud of old motor oil, sweat, dirty socks, a faint hint of Aqua Velva left from his morning shave, ButchWax, and a beer or two on his breath, and he'd often enhance that by having another beer and opening a can of sardines packed in mustard while Ma got dinner on. I'd rather smell Limburger! And Braunswieger. Combined. And he knew it. He'd grin at us and say, "Oh, c'mere and give your hard working old daddy a smootch" and then do that puckered lip thing. And then he'd laugh and laugh. Most kids remember the soft, gentle smells of their dads....faint pipe smoke, Irish Spring soap, all of those sentimental things. My dad just, well, he was gamey. But he did take a bath while we set the table. Not sure if he was protecting his appetite or ours. But oh, how we loved him!

:loveThis reminds me of what my kids say about their dad. Hubs used to haul asphalt. He would come home reeking of oil and dirt, sweat, and his old beat up Camaro that had rotting seats and no carpet. They still ask him to start up that car once in a while so they can sit in it for a while and play old tapes.
 
Morning all.
My turn to have insomnia.

Discovered one of my hens most likely has EYP. Of course it was right as I was heading to bed last night.

So, you know how your mind runs like crazy when you can't sleep? I had this half asleep mind whirling attempt at trying to figure out measurements of medication etc... of course, since I was half asleep it turned into these weird complex equations.
 
When I worked at Subway I smelled like the Italian Herb bread and it wasn’t a good smell. I still hate the smell of Subway and can smell it on people when they’ve been there while bread is baking.
Starbucks left me smelling like coffee. Personally, I looove coffee, but I guess it wasn't a good smell when permeated in clothing.

What is EYP?
How'd the orthodontist visit go yesterday DMC?
Good morning! It went well. I felt like I was going to suffocate when they were doing the bottom mold of my teeth. I can’t believe how many pictures/xrays they take. It’s my dentist that does it so I don’t have to go anyplace else, otherwise I’d have to drive 36 miles verses 11. I really am not looking forward to it at my age but I guess if I want to get rid of my gap I have to suck it up:D
