Interesting smell, I used to make black powder as a kid. found a book on pyrotechnics, bought sulfur, saltpeter and charcoal and then made black powder.

@reflectingmonkey That would have been so fun!

@Allelse I wanted to eventually make fireworks but I drifted off to some other stuff and never got around to it.

@reflectingmonkey Hahahaha!! Life's always like that eh? Get all these ideas but then you manage to drift off onto something else.

@Allelse yep, I've done my fare share of that 😂

@reflectingmonkey That's alright, it'll give the archaeologists something to do after they dig up our remains thousands of years from now. They'll spend decades trying to work out our daily routines and such from all our unfinished projects haha.

@Allelse see, funny you'd mention archeology, I almost have a bachelor's degree in anthropology, unfinished project no 72. I'm also almost a certified nutrition consultant...

@reflectingmonkey Hahaha! Did the prestige of being a nutrition consultant draw you away from finishing your bachelor's degree?

@Allelse I like nutrition and anthropology but its not the best way to make money.

@reflectingmonkey So I guess you just had to turn prostitute? Hahaha.
