Ouch
In getting dressed this morning, I went with a brown/olive stripe suit with a white shirt. I never realized just how very sunburned I am until I put on that white dress shirt. I thought it might be bad last night when Merrin mentioned it, but I was already hopped up on Tylenol and Benadryl. Even my lips are sunburnt!
Wow. I’m a lobster. I’m Hooters’ wing sauce. I think I’m glowing. I’m almost magenta.
I think you look good in red.
take a tea bath. apparently there is something in tea that is supposed to remove the sting of a sunburn.
wet tea bags for a sunburn! Done it myself.
need extra relief pickels! I kid you not-you can buy the big canister at Costco.
owie owie, two words: Aloe Vera!
I’ve always found that a light covering of Milk of Magnesia or rubbing the burn with half a ripe tomato will provide relief.
Plus, don’t let yourself or your skin get dehydrated.
Full heartidly agree with the dehydration comment.
I’ve found that whacking your thumb with either end of a ball-peen hammer will get your mind off your sunburn/abcess/shingles/myocardial infarction every time.
Even if you have no material maladies, it always feels so good when you stop.
Once again, schmed chimes in with the perfect answer. I was thinking of that very thing myself, ball-peen and all. There are so many things that can be solved with a ball-peen, from personal discomforts to ornery pets.
Well, not really, but you get the idea. Aloe Vera, to the rescue!
Do you look like the guy from the hotels.com commercials? Heh
What I wouldn’t pay….
Y’all should see it now. He’s actually purple.
