I know that this title is a little wierd! But that is how I feel! Being the pale almost translucent person that I am, I actually enjoy the cooler weather because the sun doesn't burn as bad! Don't getme wrong, I LOVE the heat and sun, but the burning affect of my poor little nerve endings under my skin, I could go without!
Today at work I spent my lunch outside, UNDER the trees, and guess what? Yup that's right! No sunscreen=sunburn! Even under the trees! So before I went outside at the end of my shift I was in the locker room smothering myself with sun screen, (for the 2 (15) waiting periods for the bus) and I walked out ready to go and what happens? I get heckled. Not such a big deal but hey! I prefer not to be burnt all the time and as a result of that, not to get skin cancer! Of course almost everybody is darker skinned than me so I bet that throughout the summer the heckling will continue. But is that is the price to pay for looking younger than I acutally am, less wrinkles and far less percentage of skin cancer, I am willing to take it!

You protect yourself, my friend! I talked to my sister on the phone yesterday, all the while complaining that I was dripping with sweat and sweltering in the 83* heat. (I know, I'm such a baby!) She looked out at her thermometer in the shade at her house, and said that it was 103* over there. Bless those beautiful mountains for keeping that kind of heat over there!! We roasters and burners need our cool weather!
