I could have written CheshireKat's post. :o

And Reverend Blamo's and tammyk1's about the corwds. I cannot even TOLERATE crowds and being impeded. Jostling me will send me into an instant belligerence.

I have an incredibly acute sense of smell, although as long as I can walk away from it, it doesn't really bother me. It only truly bothers me if it's on my person, so deoderants and laundry detergents must be perfume free. Interestingly, I do like environmental scents, like incence and candles, but only if it's not a cloying, heavy scent. Usually, I'll fire up a stick of incense, burn it for a few minutes, then blow it out. That's enough for me.

I am beginning to think this is part of it.
