My clothes keep catching on fire! Not literally. I keep smelling a burning smell and automatically keep checking my clothes for burning. When I find out my clothes aren't on fire I keep asking the guys I work with if they smell that and they say no and think I am on some sort of drugs. I just tell them, "duh... I am, you dorks, you know this". Then they laugh at me and I laugh at myself. Oh well. More seizures I guess....
 
Most sexy, but I don't think that has much to do with my clothes catching on fire. Although, since my daughter does look a lot like me I may be in trouble there... Hmmm, maybe need to buy her fire retarded clothes and keep her grounded till she's 30...

LOL I keep wondering who's skulking around my house smoking foul-smelling, 100 year old, tar covered cigarettes. Haha. Yikes, actually, I hope it is seizure activity and not some strange stalker:p
 
Sounds like you are able to explain it just fine to me. It's the other people who are confused :) I often smell different things and when I mention them I get the deer in the head lights look. As a matter of fact, this morning I have been all over this building because of the terrible smell. apparently I am the only one "special" enough to notice it. I think I will keep myself on a short leash this morning.....
 
It was yesterday that I smelled myself on fire. It's really weird how at the time you can't understand there is nothing on fire and it is just a phantom smell. I have never had smell siezures before recently. My siezures have been changing because of new medications and doses (according to my nuerologist). Yay me. <- Insert sarcasm. I think it makes sense they are changing though, I have some sort of cold or flu, my work hours just changed again, and my dosages just changed (for the last time <- Insert sarcasm again).
