So today I wore 4 sprays of openness to work. Yesterday, I wore 3 sprays but really was to busy to notice any hits. Today, however, was a little more lax. We went to twin peaks for a beer at lunch, and I saw some friends who I haven’t talked to since the layoffs. The bad thing is with those 4 sprays I just didn’t feel like talking. This in my opinion is a huge self OD. Especially when I am around friends I am extremely social and with my friend Kreiger, the life of the party. Today was different and the only variable that I can see is the 4 sprays of openness. I definately found my limit at 2 sprays. One to the neck and one to the wrists. Today’s experiment with one spray tot he back of the neck, 2 sprays to the front of my neck and 1 spray on the wrists was an OD that I will not do again.
I’ve had a lot of success spraying IO to the hair. It helps with limiting the self effects and seems to act as a great diffusing surface.
Thanks Chasm, I am wary of when doing initial testing on a product to wear it in my hair because I read somewhere that it is harder to get out then if you just put it on the skin. I will definitely try that tomorrow. I went back to 2 sprays today (1 split the wrists and one on my neck) and it really seems like my sweet spot. Everyone in the office that I have been around has been really chatty. I met with one female today in another department and it was hard to get her to stop chatting about what was going on in her department. I much prefer to just wear Shine and maybe a little A314 at work since too many interruptions cause me to loose focus on the problem I am trying to solve at the time.
I think it is a little more difficult to was out of hair, but I haven’t had any trouble so far. I have read several times that none based products are difficult to get out of hair and clothing.
I can see how that can get annoying at work, definitely something to add to the combo on a night out.
Since I found my sweet spot with openness I decided to start seriously testing A314 since it is another work friendly phero.
Location: Work
Applied Dosage: 1 spray Shine x2 to hair, 1 spray Shine x2 to neck (my daily shine dosage) 1 drop of A314 spread along my neck and upper lip.
Effect: Today at work produced small hits that were A314 related. I was down in the smoke hole with my friend Brock when one of the girls that works in another department showed up. He just found out he is going to be having a kid and we were discussing things he may end up expecting out of his pregnant wife. I don’t have kids and am not an expert on these issues so I wasn’t saying much. This girl that came down and Brock start discussing it with me again not saying much. The interesting thing I noticed was the girl always faced me and made eye contact with me instead of Brock when she and Brock were really having the conversation. It was interesting and I may be wrong, but I think the A314 could have had something to do with it.
Tonight I am going out and am going to be putting on 2 sprays of openness and reapply my shine on the way to the bar.
So it has been a couple of days where I have done my favorite thing on the face of the earth. Nothing. But it is time for another report.
Location: Starbucks
Dosage: 3 sprays of Openness to the hair, 2 sprays of Shine x2 to the neck
Effect: I was just chillin (pun intended it was icing like crazy outside) reading my book when one of the sandtruck drivers came in with his laptop. He was uploading photos to a server to send to news sites. Two other girls came in and sat right next to me. I looked up once when I took a sip of coffee when I see a picture of a car sideways wrapped around a tree. I reacted with an OMG DID THAT JUST HAPPEN? He we started a long conversation about traffic accidents when one of the females, a really cute redhead, came into the conversation. The sandtruck driver had to leave after a couple minutes and the redhead and I kept talking for another hour or so. Mostly it was me listening, which was fine with me. The openness seemed to be working perfectly and I even ended up with a number.
Score! double points for a redhead. 
Any time I get the chance to hit on a red head, I will take it. I have always had a thing for red heads.
Last night my brother let me use some of his MX292. The following story ensued.
Location: Twin Peaks, then Two Rows in Allen
Dosage: 3 sprays of MX292, one to the hair, two to the neck
Self Effects: I was really smiley all night. I just couldn’t help but smile which I normally have to force unless something particularly funny happens. Even on Shine, I normally have to force a big smile.
Effects: So we start our evening at Twin Peaks which is just about every Wednesday occurrence. I didn’t notice any hits at Twin Peaks and that is pretty normal as this crew has been going there at least once a week for almost 2 years. Unfortunately, apart from the hot waitresses who all know me very well, there wasn’t anyone there to really open. I convince 3 of the guys to go to Two Rows for dollar pints. One of the guys lives about 30 min north of Peaks and didn’t want to drive to the one in Addison. We compromise and go to the one in Allen which is on the way to his house.
This Two Rows bar was one of the biggest sausage fests I have ever been to. There were only 6 girls in the bar and I would guess 30-40 guys. My friends and I get a table and then based on a real life situation get into this REALLY deep discussion of how to confront a known physical abuser. I don’t know if that is a hit or the friend that brought it up was just drunk. Anyway, it turned into a pretty lame night.
So last night I went out to a bar Mark recommended in Addison called Cape Buffalo. It is always hard to talk my work buds into going to new bars cause they love their Friday night routine. I had a couple of friends from outside work meeting me there at 9pm so I broke off from Twin Peaks early. Before I left the house I applied my dosage.
Dosage: 1 spray Shine x2 to my goat, 2 sprays to my hair
3 sprays openness to my hair
2 sprays heat to my chest
Self Effect: When I got to Twin Peaks a work buddy of mine commented that my eyes were really dilated. This has not happened to me before when wearing any of my pheros.
Story: So after I left Twin Peaks after laying some pressure to come out to Cape Buffalo I arrive at Cape Buffalo. There weren’t many people there as I got to the bar at like 8:50. So I like to be early when I am going to meet people…sue me! I sit down at the bar and start what will be a massive tab by the end of the night. I smile at the bar tender who is an older lady and she ends up giving me priority the rest of the night. I even had to pull her over to get drinks for other people because they had problems getting a bar tender. Could this be an openness hit maybe? In about 20 min one of my friends arrives.
He orders a beer and we start chatting about this and that. A couple minutes later a lady who I thought was 35 to 40 stands beside me at the bar. She has a frown on her face which to me is violation of bar rules and I tell her as much. She says she knows the guitar player for the live band that was warming up. We chit chat idly for a little bit and another friend, who I have referred to in previous posts as Sunrise, arrives and I start paying more attention to her. What can I say, I like to talk to the 22 year old hot chick then the older lady. Conversation flows VERY freely moving from subject to subject and the bar becomes more and more crowded. Finally, my work buds show up.
I reintroduce everyone because last time these two groups met everyone was pretty drunk and my friends start in on the drinking. An hour or so goes by during which I am flirting heavily with Sunrise with lots of kino 
when the older lady comes back up to me and introduces what I assume is a friend of hers. Kind of a bigger girl with a really cute face. I start in with some open ended questions to get the conversation started when the older lady interrupts and asks if I like tattoos. Well I think tattoos on girls are hot if done properly and I say as much to the older lady. She then asks if I would like to see her friend’s tattoos. WHAT? Well ok I respond and she starts pulling up her friends shirt enough to show me full bra and the tattoos of course. I then ask the older lady’s friend how they know each other. Turns out they weren’t friends but…wait for it…MOTHER AND DAUGHTER!! Ok that was awkward so she and I exchange ages and we are the same age as well. I am not caring anymore. Then she invites me to go hang with all her friends down by one of the pool tables. All the other guys go down and hang with her and her friends and that leaves me alone with Sunshine. (have to admit, I liked that) We continued talking and we are having to get REALLY close because the music is LOUD like it should be.
The night continued with random showings from my other friends to get drinks when I think I see Mark sitting down the bar from me. I go say hi and, as I suspected, he is a pretty cool guy. We end up staying until closing time and then Sunrise and I end up leaving together. All in all it was a fun night and I really liked that mix and placement to go to the bar with.
That’s a bad-ass mix sir. I’ve gotten a lot of comments on dilated eyes as well when using Shine. It’s the Shine and the Shine alone. I guarantee it.
It’s REALLY fun if you think of some evil ways to use it.
(mix a to go of 3/4 IS 1/4 Spaceland, and “spill” it on someone…)
God…I’m mean.
Actually, I am debating ordering Spaceland in my next purchase. I am going to continue modifying that mix until I get it perfect. I’ll definitely try your mix as soon as I figure out everything I will purchase in this new order.
Oh, well I wouldn’t actually recommend trying that mix unless you want to get someone fired. They’ll be spacing out and having huge pupils. Not a great combination, especially when they don’t have a clue why they are acting so strangely.
Spaceland…eh…It’s just a toy in my opinion, wouldn’t consider using it for anything useful. Just a fun product.
Well work buds outside of work actually would probably love spaceland. At work I always just wear Shine since any and all communication happens over email IM or our bug database. But outside of work everyone there are HUGE partiers if ya know what I mean.
Why thanks techman. Gotta say I thought you were pretty cool too, and for the rest of you reading this, I’ll vouch for Sunrise being a real hottie too, and yeah she definitely seemed to be into him!
Well I went without pheros to work today and then got an invite from Sunrise to go to Two Rows. Gonna wear the same mix I had on on Friday and see if I can get similar results
Ok so there is this total deuschebag that told Sunrise that they are officially dating. He has a particular dangerous STD and she knows so it isn’t going to be a sexual relationship but he has WAY more game than I do. Anyway that basically leaves me out and there is no way in hell she will ever get me. Other than her there was nothing worth my time at the bar tonight. A bunch of dudes and a couple of unattractive females. Ugh. Oh well there is always friday night at Cape Buffalo and thanks to Mark that is my new fav bar.
Oh I should let everyone know that I just purchased an order with TAA and Instant Gentleman. I have used Instant Gentleman before and I am really curious to see what TAA does for me since I love Shine so much. Any mixes you guys want to give me for what I have is greatly appreciated.
That sucks about your girl being sniped. Don’t worry you’ll find another.
OK, so he told her their officially dating. She didn’t seem that weak and timid to me to let a guy TELL her that she is dating him. Think I might have thrown something back like “What the hells that mean, the government ordered you to date him?”
That’s about as good as the Stuck-In-The-70’s" dude from last week telling the girl I’d met that if she took his phone number he’d leave her alone. WTF!
