YAYY, my very own “da sweeming” thing.
I managed not to get my hair wet at all, until the last hour. We got dropped off around 10ish, and got out around 3. Good thing I slathered on some lotion, because I would have died if I hadn’t. Or at least look like a nasty tomato, like my sister! We had some lunch and hung out in the living room to play that Yoshi Tetris game thing until 4:30. Then back into the pool until 6:30. I sat in the ring almost the whole time the first few hours of swimming. My back tanned to the shirt I was wearing, but my legs still looked the same color, so I sat on top of the slide for maybe an hour? Or less? I felt the burn a little, but shrugged it off, because I really thought it was really minor. Cody was so cute when he stuck his head near the bottom of the slide and watched Melinda come down. The second later hours I swam around a little. We slid down the slide with three people. I was scared it was gonna collapse. Those last two hours successfully pushed my tan over the threshold and I was bright red by the time I got out. We went out to Thai food, and had crab cakes, shrimp rolls, papaya salad, beef jerky, red curry, that hot and sour soup where you light a fire underneath it, and Thai tea! I knew the two refills were too much, and I was right. After I drank it all, I felt like I was going to the restroom to wash my hands and die. I wish I looked for a peppermint because my stomach seriously felt like it was going to explode. My legs were burning the whole time. We played with the Onstar phone thing as we drove him and I went to take another cold shower. Most of me was shaking, but my legs felt really good. Once the shower stopped and I accidentally dripped the rest of the shower water from my hair onto my legs, it started burning! It’s been years since my last sunburn and I’ve totally underestimated the pain that results from it. I can’t even talk nicely. The bad part is that just the top of my legs burned. The back part tanned a little, but there’s a definite line where I got burned and the rest of my legs. I still can’t straighten them without them burning. Too bad my camera can’t pick up just how red my legs are. My back doesn’t hurt as much, but my shoulders itch a little. Good thing I was smart enough to put sunscreen on my face and arms! Ugh, I’m taking a break from swimming for a while. Definitely not next week. Good job, now I’ve increased my chances of skin cancer to an extra 30% or something.
DA SWEEMING.
