I have a sun burn


I was in Florida over the weekend, and it was hot hot hot. I was a good girl and slathered on the 45 in the morning. I waited the obligatory half hour before going in the sun. I wore a hat, I sat in the shade poolside. But I walked up and down the beach enjoying the cool breeze and comforting sun and returned with bright red feet and forearms. Now I am freaked out about skin cancer.

It’s cool here, which feels nice on my hot skin. But I have to say, I already miss waking up to a 12th floor view of the ocean.

    I got a sunburn too but I got mine right here in my own back yard. I was not enjoying fine ocean breezes, however, when I got my sunburn. I was just searching the want ads for hopes of employment. Hope you had a blast on your trip and enjoyed some fresh, delicious seafood. Welcome Home!

    New York? Florida? Hit Seattle and San Diego and you'll have all four corners covered.

    Good to have you back. Hope you had some fun.

    In Florida I once licked an orange vendor's ear. Filled with citrus goodness, me gusta! Me gusta!

    I am not jealous of sunburn. I get sunburned very quickly, thanks to my Scottish white girl heritage. Lobster-esque, seriously.

    Glad to have you home, darling.

    And Lucas, you TOTALLY crack me up.

    Taco, I think I remember that day. I was minding my own business, hanging out at my citrus stand on wheels, when out of no where a crazed lunatic wearing flip-flops and a St. Olaf T-shirt ran up, licked my ear, and disappeared into the sunset. I was so traumatized I had to sell my beloved orange cart and move up North.
