I have a weird fetish for fabric softener. Generally speaking, I use twice the directed amount — I just like really soft, clean-smelling clothes. When I go shopping, I usually buy the most inexpensive stuff I can find since I use so much of it. This last time, that meant a big 128 oz bottle of Purex Soft at Target, a bargain at $3.
Well, maybe not such a bargain. The stuff smells like sickly sweet chemicals. For a few days after using it I was wondering if my neighbors had a pest problem, because I kept smelling the telltale aroma of bug spray.
Turns out it was my clothes.
Ick.
Sorry folks. I’m kind of burned out talking about the Bush administration and my breakup — all that’s left is laundry and awards shows.
