Okay, I feel better now. I've had the french fry smell thing and I can never find the place where they are coming from. Out in the middle of nowhere, and I smell french fries! So glad to know I'm not alone on this one.

Manic, in general, you have a more sensitive system to smells and sounds, and for me, it's colors. Everything looks newly painted, brightly colored, etc. It's one way I know I'm going up is when I suddenly start thinking things have been repainted.
