I have got so used to the skunk smell. I came home one morning left the boots outside and put the clothes to be washed took my shower and got out to my wife wanting to know why my stinky skunk clothes were in the house. I told her there was no way they smelled like skunk and she told me to get them out or I will be out. They woke her up in another room and I did not smell it or the dogs. I have hunted with too many skunk catching dogs.
I call it "eau de hog hunter" it is scent mask for hog dogs
and what is left over after the shower makes my wife love me more
She would not agree but you know how women never admit men are right
So funny you say that. When I was in the 7th grade, our tom cat got in a fight with a skunk under our doublewide. I remember it smelling so bad, that we couldnt sleep, but the smell gradually went away as the evening/morning progressed. Anyway, the next day I got up, everything was fine, and got dressed for school. Mom took me, and I supposedly smelt so bad that the teachers made me sit in the hall.....We couldnt smell it, but everyone else could!!!!! It was a tragic event in my life and everyone still talks about it every now and then
