It all started with my frosted mini-wheats in soy milk this morning, which gave me some quite unexpected (honest!) gas. About 10 minutes into the 8am class I had three little sneaky oh-just-try-to-hold-us-in farts, which really smelled quite bad. They were pretty little so they seemed to dissipate pretty quickly and all their little friends inside me were less fortunate about sneaking out, thank goodness.
The 9-10 break found me in the bathroom, where I thought I got rid of it all. I know, gross, but at least it was just air and plus, seriously, what are you going to do with a bunch of weird gas inside you all morning? I felt like I really needed to get as much out as possible in a quasi-acceptable place rather than in the classroom, plus we have our handy air freshener can in the women's bathroom on our floor. :)
Back to the office and -you guessed it- second wave, so to speak. I knew no office mates would be in for at least 2 hours so I locked the door and hid and just pretty much let the most insistent ones sneak out while I worked, and a few of the less insistent ones since I was getting kind of tired of holding them in. I opened the window after all.
When I started to leave for class I realized it really was just a little teensy bit smelly in the office from the conglomeration of my little escapees so I grabbed the lemon air freshener we have here in our pad. I started spraying and the crazy nozzle suddenly broke off and the stuff kept spraying on its own. I wrapped a bunch of paper towels around it and put it in the trashcan; the dying spraying sound it made was more than a little pitiful, I can tell you. Luckily the can was nearly empty, but still when you come in the office now it smells like you stepped into a giant lemon drop. Probably still better than the alternative.
