Two, three washes and that curry smell just lingers. I'm back at my seat and I'm wiping the table with clorox wipes, then I wipe my hands with it. This has to work, right? Nope. Now my hands still smell like curry but now they have a slight hint of lemon.
Is this stuff toxic?
As an aside, there was one of those notes floating around on FB. This one was a BBC Booklist. It said that the average person had only read 6 out of the 100 number of books on the list. So I read through and I have only read 31 books! What is this, I say? It can't be. I consider myself a literate person. My major in College was English and at one point I had 3 lit classes in one semester. That has to count for something! Except that, obviously, I have not been reading what these BBC members consider to be worthy novellas. So I have decided to begin reading from this list. I choose ATONEMENT because the preview of the movie is very familiar to me and because I love a good romance. But it's just not working. I am at Chapter 5 and it is like homework to read this. The main character, Briony...I just can't sympathize with her. She's this 13 year-old brat that I just want to drown her in that fountain that Ian McEwan spent two and a half pages describing in rich detail. I think I should go for a lighter read. Maybe something like BRIDGET JONE'S DIARY.
