smelly kid in class...

good afternoon! warning: this post may or may not contain personal and somewhat embarrassing information about me. some people may also classify this information as "too much". you have been warned.

basically, it comes down to this. i am the smelly kid in class.

i have decided that among other things, Louisiana is hot. my office, among other things, is hot. all it takes is a little bit of sunshine and my office turns into an easy bake oven. this is only made worse by the fact that my office does not have proper heating and cooling mechanisms, and by proper, i mean none at all. i'm pretty sure my office used to be a closet, all though, they couldn't even advertise it as temperature controlled.

thus, i smell. i have tried a virtual cornucopia of deodorants, and still haven't found one of any worth. so, i am calling out to you, my readers, friends, and non-smelly people, please suggest some high quality "deo-for-my-bo". i'm begging you. and so are my students...although it is likely that they think it is themselves becuase sometimes it is, and sometimes it is BAD. i'd like to think that i can only smell my self, and that i'm not torturing the the senses of the kids, but i'd be naive to believe that as truth.

i will chronicle the findings of this search so that other smelly kids may find hope in my story.

What hasn't Worked:
Secret Invisible Solid
Secret Flawless Invisible Solid
Mitchum for Women
Degree Clinical Strength (this is the current mistake, and may possibly be one of the worst)

so, this is the most recent excitement in my life. oh, and I had hand surgery, it is trying to heal now...but it is in a bad place (my thumb-pit)... surgery went well though, and i got to miss 4 days of work! woo hoo for NCIS marathons and blockbuster gift cards!!!!
