I knew it was bad

Have you ever noticed, as you walk through Sears, or the Bay, you almost have to walk past the perfume counter? For me, that's hard to take. I have to run. The smell is harsh. I can feel it in my nose, and it just eats at me. It's not comfortable.

Methyl Ethyl Ketone, Jet fuel, Av-gas, no problem. Channel #5, big problem. Maybe it's because I know the stuff at work can kill me. There is no mis-conception that any of it is healthy, and should be avoided. But Perfume, and most heavily scented hygiene products, are just revolting to me. A co-worker with a tube of hand cream had me running from the office faster than Friday on a long-weekend. Why? It's not like I don't like things that smell good, I just don't like things that are perfumed.

Well, as it turns out, some of the fragrances are bad for you. There are very little regulations for some of these things, and people don't need to declare what they are using. Spooky.
