I had classes yesterday at the sleek and shiny financial building in downtown, where the stock exchange is. I stopped in the bathroom for a quick piss and facecheck and remarked the lovely smell while I was peeing. It was so familiar and yummy that smell, ah yes Fruit Loops. The bathroom was equipped with one of those mister things that sprays a pleasant odor every couple of minutes. Pissing away, I remembered my incredible infatuation with Fruit Loops as a child, never permitted to have it since the parents decided it was too "sugary". I thought how cool it would be if they had a cologne with this scent and even more apropos if it were marketed to homos. "Bring out your inner fruit with new Fruit Loop cologne." But I lamely digress.
After class and a jumbo coffee, I again stopped into the elegant bathroom with cloth towels and wood paneling on the walls. What assaulted me as I entered is difficult to describe. That fruit loop smell was mixed with something else. Slightly nutty and pungent but not in a wholly disagreable way, well not until my brain lit upon the idea that it was shit that was the mixed in smell. Ok, this is wrong and something I hadn't anticipated. Fruit Loops is not an overpowering aroma, it is sweet yet gentle like honey. Ain't no way honey is gonna cover up no shit smell - you hear what I'm sayin'? So why are they using it, they've just ruined a perfectly good smell memory for me, and now every time I smell it, I'm going to think about the Fruit and Shit Loops smell.
Christ I'm forty and I'm still amused by bodily functions. Will I ever grow up?

LOL I hope you never do grow up, for where else am I going to be able to spew orange juice out of my nose while reading? nowhere else, I tell you...
well, if you go to this website,
http://panhandlepotions.com/store/
You'll see that they do have scented candles in Froot Loops.
You must've known I'd be able to find this scent for you. Give me time, and I bet I'll be able to find lotion too!
Okay, I did it. This website:
http://www.homemadecandlesbycandy.com/home1.html
has lotions in the froot loop scent.
(as well as triple wax dipped teddy bears, whatever the hell those are).
Quite a story you have there, hehe

For your sake, I hope not.
(I am a little concerned, however, about the nutty 'not wholly disagreeable' smell of shit to which you refer...it's been my experience that shit smells very wholly disagreable.perhaps a visit to an ear, nose, and throat specialist is in order?? ;) )
I feel sick ;-)
There really needs to be a fruit loops cologne. I would where it. I was googling it and found this blog. I WANT SOME.
