Immediately afterwards, I went out with the local crew that was in town, then to a Reverend Horton Heat show with some old friends. Long and short of it, didn’t get home until nearly dawn. At which point, I was assaulted by the smell of …. garlic. Everything I had brought with me smelled like garlic, including my suitcase. Needless to say I was “aromatic” for the remainder of the conference and the flight home.
