I’d like to leave the topic alone mostly, but I deleted my previous journal but saved all relevant reports to re-post. It was becoming too much venting for myself and not enough reporting. I’m going to try to keep this less personal; I was feeling weird about it.

I did PDF the whole thing before I did it, so if anyone was particularly attached to their posts there, I still have it if you want it.

I also helped my formatting a bit while pulling the reports out. Now i will proceed to post a million times in a row 😛

**Pherobaptism of IS/b, IS, & IH** (aka… I sprayed so much shit I have no clue 😛)

The IS lid floated off in shipping and there was a minor coating of IS inside the bubble wrap (-\> coating of IS on my hands). I didn’t think it leaked that much, but I guess it was a lot because EVERYONE got loooooopy!! Someone asked if anyone else was having trouble concentrating. Everyone around got giggly. Once the initial loopiness (that is SO a word) wore off a couple hours later, I got really, really focused and worked really, really fast. I kind of got a crash about 4.5 hours later… not bad, just kind of that post-coffee 3pm feeling.

I didn’t really feel much in the way of self effects from IS/b (that I could attribute directly… maybe the IS craziness was a combo of all 3? It just seemed like the traits that normally are stated to go with IS) One guy I work with wanted to grab drinks after work (and we did). We’ve never really hung out just the two of us, but we do hang out in groups a lot.

A couple of my coworkers who had been annoyed at each other suddenly decided to lay out all these annoyances in a very civilised manner and made up and returned to being friends after I had been nearby for an hour or two (they’ve got on fine since) A coworker started to explain a personal dilemma to me & even considered my advice. We don’t really have more than pretty superficial conversations, even though we are more or less ‘work friends’, so this was pretty different. IH?

**2x IS/b

I went to a concert this night with a friend and her… long distance kind of boyfriend? Before the band we wanted to see went on we sat on the smoking patio both my friend & I told a lot of stories, again not particularly out of the ordinary, her friend-boy was very quiet. Somewhere in here I got a drink and shortly after finishing my drink got really… neutral? I wasn’t particularly drowsy or mad or bummed or whatever, just didn’t feel chatty.

**2x IS/b

Saturday was interesting, I was going to an ex-boyfriend’s going-away-forever party, we are still actual (!) friends. I considered more IS/b but thought I should not go too hard on the ‘sexiness’ level for a few reasons. It was about 45 min away so when I showed up he kept commenting how awesome of me it was to make the trek down there. I like to drive, a lot! so I didn’t think of it as such, but ah well. Couldn’t tell if he was impressed or a little weirded out by that, I mostly got grateful vibes though. It was with his family (who I had met once) & his friends, some of which I knew, but none I was really close to… I tried to not cling to him though and didn’t really have too much of a problem with being awkward (this is so a situation where I’d be awkward). I got myself involved in a ping pong game that everyone was having a pretty good time with. His mom seemed very interested in talking to me? I ended up sticking around and talking to him for an hour or so after everyone left, nothing too serious though, just about moving and the new job and all. He walked me out to my car & I commented that all my friends have been MIA lately so I haven’t gone out near my apartment much & he said something about wanting to come, but it wasn’t a sort of ‘yeah let’s hang out now!’ type response. He did say I should call him if I’m in Seattle, but no sort of shocking revelations or anything.

This one’s all about self-effects. I was a caffeinated giggly mess!!! I asked the office manager if she put crack in the coffee!! (I only had one cup. totally normal) I sprayed them around 1pm and could not calm down for the life of me, I was still bouncing off the walls when I went home and was STILL bouncing off the walls there. I couldn’t even fall asleep that night until 3am because I was so wound up. Mones or body going nuts (or, based on how long it lasted, mones causing my body to go nuts)? 😕

I got some EOW as well, which arrived a few days ago, and I have it mixed up with some ginger vanilla body spray in one of those “airplane approved” travel bottle spray bottles you can buy for like 4/$1 at Target. On July 4th, went to try to find take out food within walking distance (in a city where it seems that almost everyone is from another country, this shouldn’t be so hard on the 4th?!) I wasn’t exactly looking to attract anyone on my hunger walk but you never know where you’ll meet the love of your life, eh? 😃 I sprayed 2 sprays of that mixture before leaving because I have plenty of EOW, so why not? After discovering some restaurants one way were closed I headed back the other way, which involved walking by a fire station (who I would think would be quite busy on this night!). As I approached one of the firemen said hello and told me to pause a second so he could stop traffic for me (!) - the fire truck was blocking the sidewalk so walking around it required walking in the street (it’s quite a main street). Instead I ended up chatting with 3 young-ish (it would appear, under 35) firemen for about 15 minutes who wanted know all about my life 😃 They finally scattered when what appeared to be their supervisor returned in another fire truck but one of them kept chatting until I told him I was starving and going to continue on my food mission - they all introduced themselves and told me to “come by if I have ANY questions”.

I done got me a date!!! 😃

I was wearing…  
**3x IS/b (hair, jaw, elbow)  
3x IS (hair, jaw, elbow)  
4x spray of my cops/ginger vanilla mix (1x per elbow, 1x per back of knee)**  
& heels 😛

Terrible grammar aside… sadly, it’s not with anyone I had an eye on, but a date is a start! In our little decidedly un-patriotic romp around the local bars last night, I started talking a bystander about Costco (?! of all things!) and as we departed for the next bar he asked if I would take his number. He texted today asking if he could take me out this week. Looks-wise he’s not really my type, but personality-wise I can see some compatibility, so we’ll see… I figure he hasn’t given me any reason to not give him a shot! It’s been so long since I went on a date I can’t remember how to do this 😃 😮

1x cops/ginger vanilla spray @ 4pm**

I went to pick up dinner after work and there was a gorgeous boy working who paid lots of attention to me 😃 It’s mostly a sit-down diner-type place, but I ordered at the register to-go. First, said gorgeous boy greeted me at the door… and then followed me to the register (in the back), where there was a girl working. When I said I wanted to order to-go, he immediately volunteered to take my order and she kind of pushed him away and took my order instead. While I was waiting he brought me a glass of water unprompted - by the way, did I mention he was the only waiter working and there were about 6 tables of people? And then dropped his pen next to my seat twice, brought my to-go food to my table and rubbed my shoulder when he let me know my shake was forthcoming. Then I overheard in the kitchen:  
Register girl: She hasn’t paid yet, I need to ring her up.  
Gorgeous waiter boy: No no, I’ll ring her up!  
She let him, and he undercharged me to boot 😃

Here’s about all I’ve discovered in the past few days:

- IH + IO leads to me maybe being a little too outspoken & definitely coming off too strong (too bad about the depleted IS/b, it could have lent a hand methinks!!). It’s fine until something gets me fired up and then I see a little bit of the person I was a few years ago, where I didn’t really think before I spoke and got in stupid arguments & offended people and then immediately felt bad/embarassed/ashamed after saying it. As I get older I get better at this, I still do it occasionally but there were 4+ incidences of this the other night when I was hanging out with some acquaintances I’d rather not offend. Oops.
- I got the IS fragile effect Astrea has described on Thursday. It was only 3 sprays, which last time turned me into a caffeinated giggly head. I don’t understand. I spent the whole day feeling not good enough for anything & really unfocused, but not in a hyper way, more of an unmotivated kind of way… very weird. Instant Eeyore? haha
- Cops are giving me very polarized effects. Like above, there was some success (firemen & waiter), but, for example - the guy I like seems very prone to ignore me when I am wearing them. I went out the other night and had on cops, IS, & IO and I seemed to be invisible to just about everyone. Weird.

right. about that date…  
**2x IO  
2x IH  
1x IS-double strength  
EOW**

we started off by drinking & chatting in his apartment for about 1.5 hours… he wouldn’t stop talking! that’s okay. i determined him to be unemployed, but he wouldn’t outright say it. 😛 he then drove us out, and on the way there asked how old i was. when i told him he suddenly got very cold & not chatty… i didn’t ask, but i guessed him to be about 28 based on timelines he offered (when he graduated from college, when he started going to the bar we met at, etc). 6 years isn’t a very big gap, so i don’t quite get it. a friend suggested it was probably just that he expected that i was older, and it was just sort of a shock - not actually bad. the line outside of the show was a bit awkward and i started getting bored. show was ok, just ok. when we got back his chattiness seemed to kind of come back, but at that point i was bored and tired and elected to leave pretty quickly. he hugged me, but did not try to kiss me (fine by me), and told me to call him if i wanted to hang out again. eh.

karaoke last night with a guy I’ve been chatting with for about a month was fun. nothing actually got especially flirtatious or sexual (he did analyze the color of my eyes, which I guess is complimentary at the least) but it was just a fun time had by all involved! He brought with him 5 dudes and 3 girls (one of whom was the girlfriend of one of the dudes), and everyone just had a great time. I did not sing (but he did) 😛 His friends were awesome. I somehow managed to get 3 of the guys engaged in a 20-minute conversation about Britney Spears’s music (& not her looks)… guess this mix brings out the inner flamboyant gay man in everyone _😛😮 All in all, it was just a really fun time, whether he is interested or not. I don’t care either way, he is a fun friend with a lot of fun friends in tow. Every time I hang out with him he brings 5+ friends, and I usually love all of them (one of the girls kind of irked me last night, but not enough to bother me). Very good._

No offense intended, tis just a joke 🙂

**1.5x P78 10mcg @ 1:30pm  
1x P78 10mcg @ 4:30pm**  
Went to lunch with a friend who works nearby. we’ve been going to lunch together a lot lately, and we went for drinks together last night too. she is going through a lot of turmoil in a lot of parts of her life at once so i have been listening and imparting advice a lot. but today, she didn’t talk much 😕 her & her boyfriend worked out a lot of issues last night, maybe she didn’t have much to say because things were resolved?

i noticed about 15 minutes after that last spray that i got much brighter & energetic, i had been feeling pretty lethargic all day.  
went to trader joe’s after work (arrival - 7pm or so) & asked a male (late 20s?) employee where an item i bought frequently that was no longer in its place was. the male employee gave me a 5 minute explanation of how it came to be out of stock, what they need to do to get it back in stock (“they’re gonna go catch some more tuna, and, uh…”), and then how it will get back in the store. he also kept inching closer & closer until i thought he was about to be standing on top of me. 😮 😃

**2 sprays (each) of P78 10mcg  
@ 1pm [head, throat]  
@ 5pm [throat, 1 spray split between wrists]  
@ 9:30pm [head, throat]**

After the first set of sprays I noticed that EVERYONE I saw said hi. Everyone! Even people I didn’t recognize. Eeeeeeveryone. Oddly, it didn’t seem that most of them were interested in saying much more than hi, but I got a lot of bright smiles & waves.

On the way out of the building I was in the elevator with a stranger from another company. I made some comment as we stepped out of the elevator about how the people who need to get out were always in the back of the crowd & he started asking me questions, where I worked, what I did, blah blah, and introduced himself (while falling all over himself 😃) before taking off in the other direction when we walked out the door.

Went out tonight & ran into someone around 10pm I had once gone on a date with (we got along great as friends but no real chemistry). I didn’t see him and he practically chased me down & grabbed me to say hi! We talked for awhile before he went off to find his now-disappeared friend & gave many hugs.

Interesting. It seems to be almost like IO + IH , but with some different vibe to it I can’t quite explain. It definitely gets people talking & happy about it, though!

I really, really like the p78. It’s been definitely the most consistent for me thus far, more than the Instants. It just makes me feel very content (but on the energetic/talkative side of content). Definite recommendation from me!

As a random note, I am starting to think that one of my coworkers uses mones too! 😮😛 After I started, I thought that the neroli scent smelled awfully familiar, but chalked it up to being a common scent in cologne/perfume. He walked past me the other day with a definite STRONG, just applied scent & at the same moment that I, without thinking, reached out & touched his arm (I am a very decidedly NOT touchy feely person) I realized that he smelled EXACTLY like IS. Very specifically, IS, not any other neroli-scented mone. 😮 Of course, I am the paranoid type, so this could all be in my head, but it was such a strong association that I just went 😮😮

I also noted that he didn’t smell like anything at all today & I felt far less interested in talking to him than normal. HMMM. (Or, maybe I was just all wrapped up in my wonderful world of P78 😛)

**P78 10mcg - Cookie  
2 sprays @ 10am + 1 spray 2x IH  
2 sprays @ 2:15pm + 1 spray 2x IO**

I think I like the combo with IH better. Combined with IO, it didn’t seem to add much, maybe because everyone wants to talk to me already with the P78 on 😛

P78 is a favorite! I don’t have anything specific to report, but everyone just seems to enjoy being around me more with it on. Sometimes they want to talk to me, but sometimes they just want me to be near without needing to talk, but it’s rarely awkward. I just form a little magnetic field around me 😃

And, maybe most important of all, _I_ feel good. Things don’t get me down or stretch me thin with it - I just seem to be much better at taking things in stride & moving on with my life, which is something I’m not naturally good at at all.

**3x P78 10mcg Cookie @ 8:30pm  
1x IS-double strength @ 8:30pm  
4 drops EOW w/ Warm Vanilla cover @ 7:30pm**

I was curious how the IS & P78 would combine. To be honest, I didn’t seem to notice much difference - maybe a little more confidence? I actually went to a bar by myself 😮 A friend was supposed to meet me there but ever so conveniently became unresponsive once it was time to leave. Deciding that I wasn’t letting flaky friends (I seem to be a flaky person magnet) run my life tonight, I went anyway & decided to see if she showed up. She never did, but I had a couple of drinks & not too bad of a time! A couple guys at least 13 years older than me appeared & made conversation, which I didn’t mind, being all by myself, despite the age difference & them not being attractive. I actually attempted to chat to the two (in my opinion) cutest guys in the bar, since they were in the elevator with me (the bar had two stories), and then realized they were a gay couple on a date. D’oh. Story of my life…

Hi, I’m still alive. Happily chillin in my little cloud of P78. 😃

I’ve been trying to OD on P78 just to see where to stop. I haven’t gotten there yet - I’m up to five sprays (10mcg) & haven’t gotten any ill effects, from myself or anyone around me. Hmm.

I have not too many reports, just because nothing of explicit note happens - just a general goodness.

I have a couple short (or not) stories I guess…

**3x P78-10mcg Cookie  
2x IS-double strength (to the hair - only for others really)  
3 drops cops + 2 light strips**

Went to a concert with a male friend previously mentioned (from karaoke). Every time I yawned he’d kind of put his arm around me & squeeze me, or rub my shoulder, or something. A little overfriendly for a friend, even one with a lot of female friends. Definitely seemed like attraction. He didn’t try to make any actual moves, but gave me a nice big hug when we left.

I also mentioned another male friend at one point, in the context of me eating very unattractively in front of him & a female friend (“I was just shoveling it in my face like a caveman…”). I am attracted to this male friend, but I don’t know how this one would know it, as he’s never met nor heard about him before, and they have no mutual friends besides me. He responded with what I sensed to be a little jealousy - “why does it matter how you were eating in front of them?!” When I pointed out it was just simply something I felt was unattractive, he backtracked & kind of made it less accusing.

**4x P78-10mcg Cookie  
2x IH-double strength  
1x IS-double strength**

Went to a get-together over the weekend (I wouldn’t really call it a party, it was in an apartment & only 8ish people at the peak) that the one I really like invited me to. Nothing especially notable happened - he made one very questionably suggestive comment (another girl here, friends with him, mentioned that she would probably hook up with a guy who was an amazing photographer on the basis of that alone. I said I probably had done that before (joking kind of), and he responded with “well, _I’ve_ taken some pretty beautiful photographs”), but that’s kind of reaching. I also noted that when I got up to use the bathroom, he moved himself to the empty seat on the couch next to where I had been (and where I returned to, of course 😉). However, he only stayed put there for about 20 minutes, and after getting up for awhile re-seated himself in a chair even though the seat was still open. I did note he got up shortly after I got very close to him - I was kind of inching that way until I was snuggled up next to him, under the guise of viewing something on his phone 😛 - but I think it was to go to the bathroom or get something, so it may have been coincidence.

Three girls at the get-together who I had never met before took to me very well, and paid great attention to my stories - almost in a looking up to me way. It was strange, as I was pretty sure I was the youngest there, and also the only one who didn’t know everyone else attending. They were all very excited to hear what I had to say, it was interesting.

In general, the get-together was definitely a success because I expected it to be rather awkward since I didn’t know very many people there, but instead it turned out very fun all around 😃 (I’m sure the alcohol didn’t hurt, either)

What happened? Did you say too much to someone? I somtimes worry that I may, although I am pretty quiet, IH and IO tend to make me chatty.
