About fumes and such, I remember going to high school, enjoying the smell of the CTA bus pulling away after i got off. Today my senses flipped 180 degrees. Irene and I both find it difficult to be around old diesel truck fumes and even cigarette smoke. I would have thought to be more tolerant as we get older. But other things like burning leaves this time of year is such a welcomed aroma in the air. Strange how we are more sensitive to some smells, but others have become therapeutic.
This getting old gets weird.
