Anyone still here?

I have another hour and a half. I just rode in the elevator with someone that smelled exactly like an old canvas tent smells when you unroll it for the first time after you didn't really clean it very well after your last camping trip. How would one even acquire that smell?

    Ick.  I've encountered that before.  I have no idea how one creates that aroma.

    Perhaps they've been storing the clothes they wore that day in a musty bag?

    ::JAZZ HISS:: I'm here. I suspect they left their clothes in the wash too long after washing (approximately 4 days) and then tried drying and wearing them without washing again first. I know someone who maybe did that once and her husband said she smelled bad. Or maybe I just heard it somewhereyouknowwhatnevermind.

    I stopped at home before heading to H's work, so I'm here.  I made a small pot of coffee.  :::sips out of her Milhouse mug:::that sounds gross but it's not as bad as when people smell like vinegar.  and I would guess their clothes got wet and dried really slowly and smell musky and dank?  a small pile of laundry I had folded and left in our humid basement smelled so musty I rewashed them.  I might describe them as "moldy tarp smell."

    Stupid musty canvas smelling man made me have a craving for toasted marshmallows. I suspect we never really cleaned our tent very well after camping when I was little.

    FYI: your discussion of meeting up with each other is not entertaining to me.

    I am here, Googling to try to find out how to make the dog stop fearing the back yard.I don't camp, so I don't know what old tent smells like, but I imagine it smells like basement.

    I've been trying to get Will to say Sookie. So far he will only acknowledge that she is a puppy.

    that works for me too, Fallin.  We could discuss how yummy PFChangs will be once we have a weekend free to have it together.

    Yes, maybe in December?  November is crazy.  Why, I ask?  I never have 4 busy weekends in a row. Ever.

    I would go anywhere for PF Chang's. A chance to meet Fallin and to see Tasty again, would be wonderful, but alas I cannot travel for a while.

    I would prefer everyone discussing coming to texas. It would be great people watching, admit it.

    Chicago in December sounds like a special kind of hell for me. I think NC's winters are too cold.

    Cal, I do want to come see you sometime in the near(ish) future.  I know I'm seeing you next week but I also would like to be in Portland again.  I really do love it there.

    It's a plan, Tasty. There should really be a Chicago GTG in the spring.  Chicago in the spring is glorious.
