tunafish stench @ 10:50 AM

I've been terrible this week. Please forgive me.
I had every intention of posting, once a day this week.
Really, I did. Somehow or another I managed not to though.
Whoops. 

Currently, our apartment smells like tuna-fish. I didn't make
tuna-fish though. In fact, I've not made tuna-fish since we moved
into this apartment. Actually, now that I think about it, I don't
even think we own a can of tuna-fish. Riddle me that. Oh, Provo.
I think apartments should come with neighbor warnings. They 
have "neighborhood warning" signs but no one ever tells you
that you're about to have a terribly smelly neighbor that will
make your air-fresheners sweat just to work properly. 
Smell the burn! Or that every time your house is cleaned 
and they want to eat your house will suddenly tell you the 
outcome of that meal, good or bad. Yuck!

I'm not trying to complain. But let's be honest with ourselves, 
who likes to open up their front door to a tidal wave assault on their
nostrils? I certainly don't and yet I am, constantly. It's more than a
daily basis, because I leave the house more than once a day. 
The real problem we're faced with is the confronting of said
smelling-apartment-next-door-dwelling neighbor. How would a
conversation of sniffic proportions go? 

"Hey, there neighbor...."
anything that follows would promptly be followed by:
insert foot in mouth.

To put it delicately, we have one rank-o-licious neighbor.
I've seen her once. I've smelt her on a regular basis.
It's not gossip or hearsay. Just facts.
Girlfriend, would you mind freshening up your cooking
just a tad, or dousing your apartment with fabreeze 
every once in a while? My nose can't take it anymore
and I have the worst sniffer around. 
youch. 

Oh well, you live and you learn. Then you budget for
extra glade plug-ins to make your home smell like home.
