Oo - All In One Stinking Week

It's not impossible that my house stink. At times there festers garbage in a sack behind a closet door, and once the sink got clogged with who-knows-what; sent water back up filthy and all black; I dished it out scoop by nasty scoop into a pan. That damn disposal broke. There was no doubt my kitchen reeked, so I turned on a fan and dropped some baking soda in the drain (I'd heard it stopped most odors), but the worst came next: a stench which I could not explain. I searched my rooms. Six days my house was cursed until I found it dead and hidden well - a mouse I bet inhaled the kitchen's smell! (true story but a little exaggerated!)
