down to the depths with you
I'm pretty sure that whoever it was that came up with the idea of scented tissues will burn in the deepest fiery pits of hell for eternity. Or at least that they should. Because seriously, those things are the devil. And really, what's the point? If I'm using them to blow my nose because I'm sick, I'm not going to smell them anyway. And if I'm using them to blow my nose because I'm having an allergic reaction, the last thing I'll want to shove in my face is a tissue with a gross chemical smell.
I can understand lotion and aloe and whatever tissues. In fact, I absolutely love them; they've saved my nose from being dry and cracked on the outside and irritated and soggy on the inside many times. But why do we need the smell? (This also applies to other things, including feminine hygiene products and seriously, why would you do that?)
I never used to have allergies, but it seems like my body's decided that this allergy season is the absolutely perfect time to start experimenting with weird reactions to various things flying around in the air. I don't get the stereotypical allergic reaction, with the sneezing and runny nose, but I get upgraded to Sinuses Status: ANGRY BEES on a regular basis, and get to enjoy the accompanying headache and drowsiness, along with feeling like I want to shove a fine-tipped crochet hook up there and yank everything out.
And now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go blow my nose on my scented tissues because clearly I should learn to look more closely at the multi-packs when I grab them in the throes of the plague and/or allergies. :(
