    They were probably water blisters.

    When I was sixteen I went to a theme park in late May with a bunch of kids from school and I forgot sunblock. The chaperones were really concerned because of my skin tone, but we couldn't stop for sunscreen. So I go out and play and have fun in the blazing hot Atlanta sun and it's amazing. For hours and hours.

    Then we go to the water area of the park and I get sopping wet. And mysteriously turn bright red. Mysteriously.

    So we go home, I nap on the bus and get kind of itchy but I'm okay.

    I go to sleep that night and at about 5 a.m. I wake up in smurfing agony. Never been in so much pain. I stumble to the bathroom, turn on the light and after like five minute manage to peel off my shirt (and quite a bit of skin) and I have a solid, continuous water blister spanning my entire chest (I was wearing a square neck tank top.) I was out of school for two days.

    Never again!

    Signature by rubah. I think.

    You stand under a hot San Diego sun for 8 hours and not burn.

    I do this all the time!
    Well, sorta. Some days I am out from sunup to sundown. That sucks. But I still have yet to get a sunburn from San Diego sun.
    And surprisingly I didn't get one in Afghanistan either. I just got nice and tan.

    Pfft sun's not even at full blast for 8 hours out of any day.

    Any beaches in SD? I'll visit when I finally get around to my california Brother / Allies / Cousin / Julian tour.

    probably 2013. Yeah probably.

    I thought you live in Canada, where it snows. Places where it snows don't count as hot, come to Australia.

    I got sunburnt at the beach a few years ago but I was fine with it because I used the pain as a reminder of what a swell time I had
    Kefka's coming, look intimidating!

    It sure seems like full blast when the whole day is near 100 degrees out.

    And San Diego is on the coast.

    Default Even I'm disappointed.

    I'm glad that despite my best efforts to disappear, I stay relevant around here.

    I live in Miami. Sunburn just happens sometimes.
