The Scent Of A Blanket Cave.

The blanket cave smells like Nanshe, from BPAL's Somnium line:

DREAM FORMULA IV: NANSHE
The Babylonian Goddess of Dreams, who bestows the power of Oneiromancy onto her priests. This blend opens up psychic sensitivity during sleep and aids in the understanding and correct interpretation of portents and symbols.

Whatevs. I got a sample aaages ago and put it on in bed. I frequently wear perfume to bed even if I haven't worn any during the day, I dunno, it just comforts me, so when I read its little blurb, how could I resist? Who knows? I have bizarre dreams all the time as it is. It smells good, and after a whole imp's worth of putting it on at bedtime, I totally came to associate it with sleep, so I had to get a whole bottle. Good work, on that one, BPAL!

To and on me, it smells like freshly cut raw ginger root. Maybe a little lemongrass in there. Lots of other people seem to get lemons, lavender, all sorts of other stuff. But on me it's overpoweringly ginger, and I LOVE it.

Also the blanket cave smells of girl and sleep and 'Nilla Wafers, which (bizzarely) seems to be my default naturally exuded scent. Maybe I am secretly a cookie princess.

Blanket Cave Buddies.

I often get asked: "Say, Patience, what's that awesome stripey thing that your boobs get to sit on in all your pictures of you in blanket caves?"¹


Well, kids, that's Nyago. I either got Nyago from an ex or bought him for myself while I was shopping with an ex, I genuinely don't remember, such is the power of the ex-banishment from the awesomeness that is Nyago. (He peed sitting down so as not to exert his male privilege over the toilet. See whyfor the banishment?) Nyago used to be a Sanrio character but was dropped. I have no idea why, and I will forever be mad about it.


Nyago is a SLEEPY KITTY who likes to SLEEP. Maybe Hello Kitty got pissed that he was promoting narcolepsy to children. Who knows?


I have a few Nyago things, but this pillow/cuddly guy is the best. Long Cat is long.


He is equally good as a pillow or a cuddler. Nyago kicks so much ass that he can even multitask in his sleep.
