    Default Marvelous side effects

    Today, as I was doing my workout in the gym, I heard my phone ring. "Impossible", I thought, I knew that my mobile was upstairs in the changing room in a locker. When I came back, I had an absent call exactly at that time. Eigther I have developed some paranormal abilities, or I have gained an extraodinary sence of hearing (or it was just a funny coninsident).
    Later, while I was inline skating, I could very clearly smell garlic mustard (which happens to be my favourite wild herb). I examined the medow beside my path and actually found a few leaves of that plant. I could smell it out of all those plants.

    The other side of the coin is that I suffer much more from both air- and noise pollution when I'm in town and that I almost get sick when somebody around me smokes.

    wow, that's really cool!
    I've heard about older people going raw who starts to hear those super-high tones that come from cell phones and tv's , that useually only children can hear.

    I would love for my ability to recognise smells and scents to improve!

    oh geez, you mean my sniffer will get even better? I'm already a freak in my family because I can smell and hear things other people don't - the high pitch sound from electronics drives me nuts already, lol.

    As I've been changing the way I'm eating over the summer, the weirdest thing has been happening... I CAN SMELL MYSELF.

    You know how everyone has their own, unique scent? Well usually we dont notice it, because were so used to it. I dont know whether it's because I'm becoming more sensitive, or I'm changing, or what; but now I can pretty much always smell myself. I dont smell bad, but it's definitely there. I feel so smelly :)

    I've checked with my family and friends, and they tell me I'm not stinking or anything- so I know it's me. What do you think. Is is because I'm more sensitive, or because my own unique scent has changed? It really weirds me out sometimes, I feel like such a stinker. Like Grenouille from Perfume is going to come around the corner and wrinkle his nose at me or something...
