Self TAN-Me
Well today no drama –I love days like this. Fresh hot cup of coffee and a clear mind.
Mother’s day is Sunday which means I have to go shopping –but I also have to get yet another dress for the other wedding so I guess I can kill 2 birds with one stone. So that makes me feel a little better. The thought of a packed mall with crazy people rushing around just makes my head hurt. But I doubt I’ll have an issue with getting mom a present.
Frog likes to think that issues just go away if you refuse to discuss them. Which is fine when I have had one drink to many and start yelling at the fridge door for breaking when u open it. I’m guessing from an outsiders point of view I wouldn’t have spoken to me either. Main fight of the evening was yet again power of the TV. I watch like 2 shows a week like god –why? I do not find the need to sit my ass in front of the TV on a daily basis and watch the nothingness that fills up the daily schedule. Grabbing control over the TV for a mere 2 hours ( if even that) is so horrible then why not read a book instead of sitting there complaining about the show or flipping to another channel during commercials so that I miss half my show anyway?!
But actually my whole point of writing today is sort of comical. SELF TANNERS. I have to know why-why-why-the sudden explosion of self tanners on the market today? Yes I totally understand the need for people to be safer due to the harmful rays of the sun –but really does that mean that we ALL wanted to bake ourselves in the sun to get that glow? I need not go around all year long with a fake and bake glow nor the real thing. I burn easily, I’m fair, I like my color. I am damn proud of my graveyard tan and actually look a bit odd any darker then I am-which I do not get anyways because I turn as pink as Piglet, then burn then get that I guess “tan” that totally throws off my make up and forces me to buy more colors to go with my new skin. See why I don’t like it. But anywho….last year I did buy one----that I’ve tried 2 times with horrible blotchy results. Now I once again jumped on the band wagon of buying one of those new self proclaimed lotions that give you a hint of “glow” after a week. Ok—now a week is a long time to see the color-makes me nervous but then again I haven’t found botchy skin yet so I’m guessing that this is a good sign. I dunno. We’ll see cuz I mean after ya spend a couple bucks on the crap anyway ya just forced yourself to try it out. I’m just hoping I don’t wake up at the end of the week with gorgeous glowing spots all over my body.
