what's that smell

This is nothing to brag about, and I probably shouldn’t be talking about it in a public forum, but my apartment smells. I got home from work on Wednesday and was hit by a wall of blue cheese-smelling badness. My apartment is a little weird in that the front door is downstairs and the actual apartment is upstairs. The smell started downstairs by the front door but slowly disappeared as I ascended to the apartment. That was Wednesday.

By Thursday, the odor migrated up the stairs and into the beginnings of the apartment. It was no longer downstairs by the front door. Today, Friday, it is not in the staircase at all. It is now outside my room. It is slowly trying to invade my space and suffocate me. I have opened windows and the porch sliding door to combat its unruly behavior. Hopefully it will eventually migrate its way the hell out of my apartment. I even told my landlord but I found the maintenance guy’s note: “Don’t smell any mold.”

Throughout the ordeal, Russell has made no comment except, “What the hell is that? Smells like blue cheese dressing.”

Neither of us owns any blue cheese dressing...

doing laundry probably didn't hurt either.

lo and behold, the smell is gone. i guess our natural stenches combined forces and scared it off.

go to lowe's and buy a mold detection kit. the blue veins in bleu cheese are mold - your instincts are good. also, remember that the rain we had ended last week - by wednesday...
