Please take the obviously necessary break (during which your daily blogging will be missed). Please enter me in the drawing as well, and I believe that you dated the end time for it incorrectly (you wrote "May" instead of "June").

A comment... it's the end of the schoolyear and I just feel like going out of the classroom and walking around for hours. I want to get into perfume shops and smell the summer scents. I want to go far away to a place that smells so very different to mine... But I must be patient. I must wait. (and I'll wait for the draw too if you count me in!)

Hope your projects work out well. I'm in Houston for a client, where the humidity is shocking. I brought Prada Iris, which is doing a good job. Holds up well and isn't overpowering.

M. I have been in a horrible crisis. I have heard of this happening to people before but I never thought this would happen to me. I have lost my passion for fragrance. Oh, I still wear it and love it but it seems that for the past 6 months, I haven't found anything new to excite me. I am literally in a FUNK! I was telling Tom that I have tried several times to review things but realized that they would come off mean spirited and hateful (my $50 worth of Neil Morris samples for example...hated them!). I just felt that if I didn't have anything nice to say, well you know how it goes.

Please enter me into your contest. Who know, something may knock my socks off!
