Sep. 12th, 2010 09:32 pmTonight, I had shrimp for dinner.* That was hours ago.
I have washed my hands at least eight times since then. Thoroughly. And used minty lotion.
My hands still smell like shrimp.
It is driving me crazy.
*Things about living on the west coast that still surprise me after 10 years, #427: steamed shrimp without Old Bay. I always expect it and then it's not there and I am subtly disappointed. I realize that Old Bay is kind of a regional thing and that there are large portions of the country that manage to quite happily have steam shrimp without it. I just don't quite understand why.
