Fun and games with anosmia

[type_wild]

I got out my box of Christmas decorations, and after having put up 90% of them, discovered that the bottom was covered in mouse droppings.

So that’s going to be a story full of fun for whoever does the janitor services here, but I’m more curious about whether or not my flat reeks.

Because, well, mouse pee is smelly and there’s been a little clan walking around in my Christmas decorations, but I live alone and my nasal lining is "chronically inflamed" which means I'm living with an endlessly stuffy nose and I haven't smelled anything for the last three months.

The upside, I suppose, is that it nothing's been chewed on, so they probably haven't been nesting there, at least. And that the family who recently moved in next door asked me if it was okay that they got a cat.
