It was a brilliant weekend that just went by. The first this year, so I was siked about it. By Friday, I had decided that I was going to get out in the sun and hopefully get some color to this pale skin of mine that has been wrapped up in layers of sweatshirts and jackets all winter. Nothing major. I just wanted to sit in the sun for awhile in a tank top and shorts.
So, when I got up this morning I started looking around for suntan lotion or baby oil. Anything that would help me tan faster. Nothing. I swore that I had bought one or the other, but if I had, I sure the hell don't remember where I put it. So, instead, I fill the bathroom sink with warm water and dumped a ton of salt in it and stirred it around until it dessolved. I remember living in San Diego and always sunburning at the beach after swimming in the ocean. So, I figured, what the hell, salt water is salt water right? So, I splashed it all over me and then went out front and just sat in a chair facing the sun, and everytime, I dried off, I would go back and splash more salt water on me. Within a half an hour I was burnt on my shoulders and couldn't take the heat anymore and went back inside.
Mission accomplished though. Salt water works. LOL. Probably better than the suntan lotion. Okay, okay. It probably dried up my skin like crazy, but, hey, I'm tanned. LOL. I think I'm going to try my salt water trick again next weekend. LOL.
