That was before I got addicted to tanning bed and was fair complected. I was miserable the rest of the time. I looked like a tomato with hair. I had to take cold showers and it hurt to lie down no matter what position I would try to lie in. I peeled for 3 weeks after. Now that I am dark and go in the tanning beds all spring and summer, I rarely burn any more. Even though I am going to probably look like a prune by the time I am 35.



Im so sorry you got sunburned that badly but I couldnt help but laugh at the "tomato with hair" part.

Hey, George

When you went out for your steak dinner last night... was this table waiting for you?

Most people don't realize you need to reapply sunscreen every so often. Hope you feel better.

Garrett, I hope you feel better soon! Thumbs up on the aloe vera!


When you look in the Webster's Dictionary for "white woman", there's
a pic of me in there! :lol: :wink:

Forget sunSCREEN....there are times when sunBLOCK is necessary!
I learned years ago - forget even imagining a tan - I'm too
European - white-skinned and freckled - sunBLOCK, Monsieur! :wink:

There is nothing like waking up in the morning stuck to the sheets and can't move. My sister had to peel the sheet off my back with a whole lot of skin attached. This was following a heat stroke. Never been in a swim suit since. I think I burnt a circuit in my heat regulator. I really have a hard time when the AC goes off. I'm really sorry to hear about your burn.
