Burnt toast

Went to the beach Friday it was great until I fell asleep in the sun and got a bad and bizarre burn (feet and 1 arm) It looks and feels like shit. The rest of the day was great when we finally found an area where the water wouldn't reach... the waves were crazy and coming up really far. I sat listening to the waves crash and eating sunflower seeds. Later, I decided to listen to my iPod I remember a few songs then I fell asleep... woke up toasty. Yesterday I spent slathered in aloe vera and soaking in this awesome stuff. I did walk yesterday even though I was in pain every step... I'm very committed to walking everyday I rarely take off even when I'm burnt to a crisp. That's dedication, baby :)

What else is new... hmmm oh yeah Barb got the house. In fact she is up there getting the inspection done this weekend. I hope everything goes well. She thinks it will. Apparently Chris stopped by on Saturday and she told him she got it and he freaked a bit. I do have to say it will be different when Barb doesn't live on LI anymore. There are just some places you always associate with people. Long Island is just Barb & Chris and now it won't be. It's the end of an era.

Highlights of the day:

Awesome Crab Salad for dinner
Celebrity Fit Club

My sunburn (feet) feels slightly better (arm still hurts like a son-of-a-bitch)

Listening to: Amos Lee "Colors"

Rambling about my day

Went to BFE yesterday literally and I almost died it was so damn hot. I was surfing the net and came across something that mentioned Lane Bryant Outlets (previosly I only knew of the one in SF yeah figures after I'm almost out of fattie stores) so I got on LB's site and sure enough they have opened a ton of LB outlets unfortunately the closest to me is the Lake Elsinore Outlets. Now, I hate Lake Elsinore with a passion but I desperately need some clothes. On the map during our weather forcast LE is always like 10 degrees hotter than here and we were pushing 100 yesterday. Anyway... we went. It was nasty hot and we parked about the farthest you could from the store. But I did get two cute outfits... a pair of black pants with a green blouse, a pair of brown pants with a pink blouse and a brown long sleeved top. Would have been $187 at regular store was only $97 at the outlet. I'm happy. It was worth nearly melting to death. It's suppose to get cooler tomorrow. I am going to the beach. Ahhhh. I'm going to take a long nap in the sea air... Just got back from Costco (or should I say the Costco buffet) I swear three or so of those little samples is a meal for me now LOL. I'm full. I needed gas for tomorrow. Oh yeah.
