phantom smells

cow-nose.jpgThis is weird. Yesterday and today I’ve noticed these phantom smells. It’s usually on the treadmill that I first notice them. Smells like something’s cooking, like maybe I left something on the stove or the oven’s on. It launches my mind every time into “What did I do? What was I cooking? Is there something burning?”

I’ve heard of ghost pains, but not phantom smells. This is weird. I don’t know if I’m coming down with a cold [mental note: take echinacea tonight] or if my nasal passages are doing a twilight zone thing. All I know is it’s weeeeird.
