So I ordered that formal dress from Ebay on the 21st of June, and I still haven’t gotten it. STILL. Usually it’s two weeks tops, and I rarely wait that long. Fortunately, I happened to see another somewhat cheap formal dress (under $35 on a clearance section of a website) and bought is just in case the Ebay dress didn’t fit or arrived too late. GOOD THING. I mean, technically I still have 3 possible mailing days to receive it, but still. Grrrr. This is cutting it close.
And now, I have to tell you how burnt I am. I really should disclaim it with: I am not one of those people who go out in the sun and bake like a tuna casserole. I’m totally pro sunblock. But today I started thinking a little color wouldn’t hurt me. So I waited until the peak hours of hottness had faded, then took the kid out to play in the wading pool. I liberally applied sunblock to her skin and then skipped it for me. I figured a little pink would fade into a bit of a tan (no this doesn’t stem at all from the complex Deanna gave me when she called me pasty).
