Day 362: Perfume

February 13, 2013

On Monday (9/24), I bought you perfume from Ulta. You’ve needed perfume for a while, so I thought this would be a good treat. You wanted to go in, but I told you that I could pick out the right one (you described to me which one you wanted). Well, I came back with lotion. Oops. I think I did that because I couldn’t think straight when I got hit by a cloud of fruity and flowery smells upon entering the store. I told you that I could get it right the second time, but you insisted on going in with me. So, we  went in together and bought you the right thing. I’m glad that you and the cashier thought my mistake was so funny.

 


Day 294: Hawaiian Honeymoon

August 3, 2012

I recently noticed that the smell of the liquid soap in our bathroom makes me think of our honeymoon in Hawaii. I’m not sure why. You wore a certain lotion every day on that trip. Maybe it smells like that. Whatever the connection is, I like that the soap brings up that memory. For act 294, I wrote you this note and placed it under the soap container:

The smell of this soap reminds me of our honeymoon in Hawaii, a memory so sweet that I can’t concentrate on anything else when it enters my mind.
