Oh they're immortal, she said. It's only a cake.

I am not named after anybody.

I think I named my sister because I remember how I chose her name - but my parents say I made that up.

Sometimes I think I have memories that turn out to be based on photographs I have seen.

I like it better when men do not wear cologne.

I once spent my last $20 on a whale kite with a long long tail.

My sister and I argue over men wearing cologne. I insist that she's just used to men who douse themselves with it.

I enjoy just a bit, a subtle spray, an evanescent mist of tantalization. I revel in the fact that most men aren't masters of subtlety. Makes my job so much easier.....

I am used to boys, high school boys, who douse themselves in cologne, sometimes in lieu of having a shower and almost always under the mistaken impression that women will be attracted. I prefer the smell of soap.

I don't much care for most female perfumes either, although in theory I love nice scents -- my sense of smell is comparable to that of a tracking animal, so even a smidgen overwhelms me. In my entire life, there have only been 3 or 4 colognes I liked, if that many. Pure perfume, the hardcore stuff, is way too strong, and I also prefer men just to smell clean.

Me too, I usually find women's perfumes too strong as well. I kind of like the scent-free rules that a lot of places are adopting now...
