Here is the time line of what happened:
Monday: I go to the grocery store and buy a weeks worth of groceries. Nothing unusual about that...
Thursday: I notice a slight smell in my car. I quit smoking 6 weeks ago, so I thought nothing of it, thinking it was my new sense of smell, and that my car just stunk.
...I do nothing.
Friday: The smell in my car is significantly worse. Let's call it "a medium putrid oder". I am thinking someone stuffed a fast food bag under a seat after ordering a road kill sandwich that they didn't eat.
...I look under the seats and clean the inside of the car out.
Saturday (Today): The smell in my car reminded my of that CSI episode where they open the bag of black gooey fluid in the morgue. I mean if that episode was in "surround sniff", the smell in my car would be the scent they would have used.
...I open all of the windows while driving.
I stop at a store on the way home from work today and pick up some household items. I open the trunk and immediately double over, nearly puking by the oder. I don't see anything though. I keep an 18 gallon Rubbermaid container in my trunk which holds my emergency kit. I move it to the side and locate a plastic bag which contains 3 lbs. of hamburger patties. With the 95 degree heat this week, the hamburger had rotted and leaked through both it's packaging, and the plastic bag from the grocery store. I put said bag in the parking lot trashcan as a warning to others.
The trunk liner is in the washing machine after being sprayed off with a hose and the cardboard thing that supports the liner is sitting outside. Luckily, there was only a very small gooey spot on the cardboard thing.
Sorry, no pics.
