We went to the beach yesterday. Zoe goes to the beach with her summer camp at least once a week. Beth has been to the beach a few times over the last year with Zoe and/or her sister. Me, I haven’t been to the beach in at least a year, probably two. It just doesn’t occur to me. And my skin reflects it.

This is the result of me A) not going to the beach for more than a year and B) figuring “Nah, I don’t need sunscreen. My legs never burn and we’re not going to be here that long anyway.”

I needed sunscreen. My legs do burn. Two hours was more than long enough. I’m a crispy critter.

Ow.
