My headphones gave up the ghost a few weeks ago and fell all to pieces. They had a good, long life - for headphones - and I mourned them appropriately. I went looking for a new pair today at Walgreens and finally managed to find the perfect pair. I'm picky with headphones. I don't want normal ones that smash your hair down and I don't want earbuds (OW!), I like the ones with the ear pieces all by themselves. Surprizingly scarce, they are. But I found them! Anyway, Walgreens already had all of their Valentines stuff up (big surprize) so I went to cuddle a few of the bears. What should I find instead? Candles. I'm always susceptible to candles, but these went one step further. Rose-scented candles. Real ones, that actually smell as close to a rose as you can get without being creeped out, rather then the main lot of supposedly rose-scented candles clearly made by someone who had never smelled a rose in his life. Or did so only with a very strong head-cold. I gave in to them almost immediately and they are now decorating my bookcase. I know that when I feel low, all I will have to do is go by and inhale to feel straight-away transported to a rose garden. And who can feel unhappy surrounded by roses?
