          I remember the number being up there somewhere, before someone went through and did a massive purge and the page count went down to like... 3...
          It's amazing how many thinky-thoughts people have on a daily basis... wait... maybe amazing isn't the right word.

                I honestly don't use deodorant. I only use soap on particularly smelly areas and my hair. And I want to back off of shampooing my hair too but it just gets knarly greasy. But honestly, I don't feel like I smell all that often. My gf only uses an alcohol based perfume dope her pits. Shrug.

                It could be complicated; of course it could be complicated. And it opened one up to the possibility of more pain and loss.
                Still, it was a blessing I would never relinquish. Love, genuine love, was always a cause for joy.

                  I have to use it, because I sweat like a pig. Even on non-hot days. Wish I didn't.

                      I work on a wood fire grill 5 days out of the week and at least 3 of those days Gretta is over 500 degrees. To say I sweat is an understatement. I am the color of a cherry 10 mins into getting her rolling. Rios our Sautee cook does not wear deo, he says it irritates his skin and he doesn't like to cover up his natural scent. The irritation I can totally understand but he refuses to look for any other substitution and let me say when we are rocking out 300 plus covers and then getting hit in the face with that cause he wants a high five or a hug can almost take me to the ground. If you don't sweat that often and you don't smell do you Boo but please when you can clear a 15 foot radius maybe look into something?

                        If it's toasty enough I do put deodorant on underboobage. Mine are too big not too.

                            I use the crystal thing. I switched from regular ol' Dove deodorant before. I would say it took me about six weeks to get adjusted to it - but it was also the height of summer working in the bush, so, take that with a grain of salt (hah!)

                            I'm so accustomed to it now though (six years later) that I don't even need to use deodorant sometimes now. In the winter, I just do nothing and I'm fine.

                              My dermatologist recommended Dove sensitive. You might want to try that.

                                Tried it already. It's even more useless than degree is, now. And degree used to work really well. It was when I stopped eating processed foods that my body chemistry seemed to change when the deodorant stopped working.
