(54) Health Problems > Ranting?

I can't wait to start wearing my contacts again. I don't know if its the sun or if my prescription is too strong, but my eyes free stretched. They ache constantly. I think I'll try them tomorrow :)

Well no one has fallen for my "coyote" story about my feet. Probably becauase its farfetched and not even that funny, but I'm just waiting for someone to actually believe me. Basically, I wore a pair of new sandals and the straps were so rough and unbroken-in, that they literally cut into my skin as I walked and have left two extremely deep and noticeable cuts. Ew.

Maybe I should stop talking about my eyeballs and my feet.

I finally got to watch Precious today. Very good movie. I recommend it.

Also, I got my car washed and the interior vacuumed! It looks so nice. All I need now is to tint the windows, I literally got sunburned through my car windows just by driving for 15 minutes today :(
I really do like being "pale", I suppose. There was once a time where I tried to do the whole tanning thing, but it got old fast. I think I actually decided to stop when I started seeing the orange and leather girls walking around. It was either that, or during my senior year, the summer of attempted-tanning, I went to the beach with a friend and we got locked out of the car. While we were standing around waiting for the locksmith, my back got burned really badly because I wasn't wearing enough sunblock. I could barely sleep for days, and I then became a sun-o-phobe.

Some people will try to argue with me that the vitamin D from the sun is extremely healthy, which it is. But all the vitamin D you need is absorbed within 10 minutes. With sunblock. Other than that? No benefits, no deal. Hahahah~

I don't think I'll ever tan. I don't think my skin is even capable of it anymore, I just burn. Its like your skin smoking a cigarette, with the carcinogens and everything. I absolutely love the beach, but I guarantee you I will be the freak on the beach with the umbrella, big-ass sunhat, probably a summer cardigan in case the sunblock fails me, and of course some SPF 50 on the side.

This post was weird. I often find that instead of ranting about my life or my problems, I rant about health-related issues, ones that no one really needs to know about. Have I mentioned how I think I'm one of those paranoid people that always thinks something is wrong? Because I am.
