Sunburnt on a Thursday

[katiefoolery]

I am sunburnt in interesting ways. Not for me the effortless tan. Oh no. And for some reason, I can't even manage an all-over burn.

No.

Instead, I have funny burnt patches and equally funny unburnt patches. And I was wearing sunscreen, too, so I'm not entirely sure how this burning occurred. Nevertheless, it did and I'm vaguely irritated by it. Not to worry, though; it will all have faded back to my standard scary white by next week.

Today was the day of the swimming carnival at my work and I was one of the photographers. It was quite a fun day, really. And usually the photographer manages to escape most of the photos, but people kept taking my camera away and turning it directly on me. Ack.

Still, I'm sure I looked fetching in my bright red singlet top, not-quite-matching skirt, Coke cap and red cape.

Yes, red cape.

Well hey - I'm in red house, so I might as well support it by dressing strangely. In public. Even my sunburn ensured I was completely co-ordinated with my red outfit. And a bonus, I have sunburn on my feet that follows the pattern of my cute red shoes.

Before I go to find some more aloe vera, I shall leave you all with my fivedotnerds video for this week. Enjoy!

I can't get the sound to work on mine. This could just be my pc being bizarre, which it does sometimes. If someone who isn't Bunne can get sound, say so, and I will glare epically at my speakers, and reboot.

Maybe you could try watching it here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=myl22zP0AYk) and see if you get sound? I know other people have been able to hear it. :D

Yeah - every time I think I won't have anything for the outtakes, I unintentionally prove myself wrong. Time after time after time.

We do not just have the same name, we have the same SKIN. Weird patchy burning that fades straight to white and NEVER A TAN IN SIGHT.

You have my sympathies.

And you have mine. :D I've completely given up on the idea of ever being anything but scary white, really.

Bet I'm whiter :P frohike will back me up :P

Also just wanted to say I'm very much enjoying watching these. They're quite fun. I especially liked your dramatic re-enactment of the national anthem in one of the others. Also it's a good kind of strange giving you a face and a voice after so many years.

One day, we'll have to have a competition of who's whiter and settle the answer once and for all! :D

I'm glad you're enjoying the videos! The anthem one is probably my favourite one to date, too. I still think everyone on my flist should do a video, purely because it would be several million kinds of awesome to be able to see what everyone looks and sounds like. Also, it's fun!
