was temporarily distracted from the multilingual america readings for tomorrow, by shoyeido (again!) and sadly reminded how long it has been since i had any incense burning in my room. it's no good though. i'd probably set the fire alarm off if i tried here. that leaves pot pourri (which would always be there and wouldn't be a matter of choosing whether to or not to!) or an electric essential oil diffuser, which would get me off the hook with housing - no open flames!, but which is plainly counter intuitive.
