Burn, baby. Burn.

I vow that from now on I will wear sunscreen. I have learned my lesson, and if I am to stay over an hour in the sun, I will have some form of sunblock to prevent a burn. Pictures will follow to further visually express my pain and suffering. I haven't worn sunscreen since sometime before I entered high school. It's just never something that I do. I almost never get burned, and when I do it's such a sissy burn that it turns into a tan the following day. I'd like to take this opportunity to express the extremity of my awe that Ashley can deal with this type of burn, and does pretty much everytime she goes out in the sun. The pain that I was feeling on Wednesday, the pain that prevented me from leaving the room until housekeeping kicked me out, is the obtuse pain that she feels each and everytime she gets burned. I mean, Tuesday night she started to blister up and she just said "Huh. I think I'm blistering." What kind of mad woman are you? The pain from my burn, coinciding with the pain induced by my blisters prevented me from even lifting my arms enough to put up my hair. I had the same hair for 3 days straight because I literally couldn't bring myself to reach up that high. It was absurd. At least the blistering has gone down by now. I'm pretty upset that the pain prevented me from going to dinner the last night. I would have gotten escargots, which I had been looking forward to the entire cruise. Alas, my lack of pain tolerance got the better of me. It's kind of weird that I can't tolerate that sort of pain anymore. When I broke my wrist in 10th grade, I didn't shed a tear until I reached the hospital and they started to fiddle around with it, at which point I demanded to be knocked unconscious. All I had said or thought about it was, "Gee, that doesn't look right." Anyway, my mom bought be a digital camera the morning before I left, so now I have a camera. Hooray! I'm now capable of posting my own pictures, and I don't have to steal them from other people. So I'll put up a few on the main blog once I get the software installed on the computer, and then I'll add to another picture page some of the more... different pictures. I have work in an hour and a half, though. I'll be closing so the pictures won't be up until sometime tomorrow, or possibly Saturday. I guess, whenever the computer and I are both available. I think I'll go physically cleanse myself, now.
