What is your middle name? I would have used that too IF I knew it!
JESSICA ANN sounds good to me, LOL

I hope you have some aloe at home that helps cool it and heal the burn.


The only thing that sound like it would have been "bad" is the mash potatoes, especially if they use cream to make them. I LOVE mashed potatoes so I am sure I would have eaten every last morsel if they were that good,

Now, really you need to be careful in the sun. I say this from experience. 30 years ago they did not know as much about how bad the sun was for you. I have scaring on my chest from laying and falling to sleep one time. I have to be careful now because that skin is susceptible to skin cancer. I just don't want you to have to go through the same thing. I got burned several times in my teens and bad a few times that last time (I was 20) was all my skin could take. Now even when I do get tanned my upper chest is splotchy because of the damage.

Take of your WHOLE self

I know it is hard because I have always said that fat tan skin looks better than fat white skin.
Now I use the lotion that gradually turns your skin tan over a week or so (at least on my legs). It doesn't look yellow/orange like the old stuff and gives enough color that I feel ok about wearing my summer dresses.
