Sensory Overload


The worst part about this sinus operation has not been pain or bruises. It's been being stopped up. I could not breathe through my nose for days. Now that they took those giant splints out and I'm getting adjusted I have found myself to have a new ability. While sitting at my desk working I smelled cat poo. I looked around the room to make sure someone wasn't being naughty (they don't do that!) and found myself alone. So I went to investigate. I found the source right where it should have been- in the cat loo in the bathroom closet. Being able to smell gross things from such distances is not a super power you want to have my friends. Additionally, I got a big LCD television as an early birthday present. Now I get HDTV which is a great new wonder to me. The bad part? Watching a damselfly larvae eat a tadpole so large and so realistically in my living room actually made me throw up a bit in my mouth. I don't normally get skeeved out so easily, but the same happened when watching giant tarantulas crawling all over the screen. I think I am going to go put my head in a bag now.
