It’s funny, feeling just a smidge lighter on my feet made me want to smell a little less like Warm Vanilla Sugar and a little more like Pearberry. Bath and Body Works’ Pearberry is what I wore throughout high school. Then, as I got older, I really wanted to emulate Tom’s friend Susie Iaquinta. She’s successful/pretty/funny/sweet/smart and a leader that I’d follow anywhere. We hung out a little bit when I lived with Nathan in 2005, but never became close girlfriends. Anyway, to me she smelled like Vanilla. So, as I imagined myself more grown up, I wanted to smell like what I considered was a more grown-up smell. Anyway, 100 lbs. later, I am tired of smelling like cookies. I just got out of the shower and was like, “No! Today I will smell like fruit! Like my old self!” It’s just interesting what is happening psychologically… just in general.
Look at my cute little button nose! I thought I was so hot.
