My main accomplishments of the afternoon are paying our property taxes, cutting another 150 net words from Sampo, and not throwing up.

I really, really need to bring in the last of the basil. I really need to make banana bread before the bananas start a fight. I am a great big coward, because I haven't done those things because I am terrified of what I will smell in the process.

You are a heartier spirit than I. I would try to claw my own lip off if I put Vicks on it. And yes, it doesn't help with hallucination or scent distortion, unfortunately.
