So every spring, I go through a phase where I realize how ungodly pale I am and break out the gradual self-tanner, keep up with it for a few weeks, and then say fuck it and give up on it for another year. Right now I'm at the beginning of the phase and I had forgotten how much the smell would linger, so I just put it on before work this morning.
Luckily the coworker I share my office with is out today, because dear Lord do I smell like self-tanner.

Gimme half an hour and I'll be red as a strawberry.
And the next day I shed my skin to confuse predators and slink off into the trees once more.
Jesus, I need a haircut.
When I washed it this morning it was like... in place and stuff? Now that it dried (and probably because I drove with the window down) it is all floofy in directions.

I'm not inhumanly pale, but I was intended by nature to be a browny kind of person and thanks to five years of no sun I'm now a pallid kind of person and it doesn't look good on me.

Always winter, but never Christmas.
is ... is this Narnia?

Whoa hey did someone say there was a pale-off? It's a good thing people are supposed to cover up during winter, because otherwise I would blend in perfectly with the snow. And also probably die of hypothermia.

Let us all gather for a pale-off. So much brightness gathered in one location is sure to act as some sort of interstellar signal to the gloriously pale aliens that brought us here. We can finally go home, you guys.
We can finally go home.
My next to last comfortably fitting bra snapped an underwire last night so I sang taps for it and went bra shopping today, bra shopping being second to none in terms of shopping I hate to do most of anything ever! Lane Bryant had a bunch of buy one get one half off including clearance bras though so I bought two, tried on about 20 (ugh bra shopping hissssss) and came home to look up what I bought online to find out that they have $50 off any $100 purchase which stacked with the bogo on bras so now I've spent $90 and got four properly fitting bras, 5 pairs of adorable panties, and a package of no show cushy socks. Scoooooooore
also two of them are neon lace balconette bras so DOUBLE SCORE
I can tan a bit, I burn a lot. But mostly I get gross freckles. My dad's propensity for moles coupled with a family history of skin cancer means I get to spend a lot of quality time with dermatologists getting moles removed. I have the most uninteresting scars.
Edit: I mostly just try to stay pale, though

... I miss real summer.
I am the pallor of death.

Personally, I prefer being pale to tanned.
I plan the amount of times I go out in shorts in the summer so that I don't get noticeably tanned.

My thighs are roughly the color of the bleaching dye they use to make egg shells white.

In an urban environment wouldn't a popular / common perfumed scent make you harder to track because of other people wearing it?

I can attest to this
luckily I got some darker skinned acadian genes from my father's side so I don't burst into flame in direct sunlight like most of my cousins

for real I immediately started trying to figure out if there was any way I could try to go to that
but even if I could manage the time off/plane tickets, we'll have a litter of newborn puppies in the house at that point
what I'm saying is, Nova Scotia is the superior choice because puppies

They bleach eggs? I thought different chickens just laid different colored eggs.

They do not bleach eggs. Different chickens lay different color eggs.
Adding that to my list of known facts about farms

I will from now on be mega disappointed that I don't eat those all the time
Gimme the blue eggs
I've always wanted to eat blue eggs but I figured robins were my only option

I think between the choice of getting kicked in the nads several times and eating balut, I'd take the kicks. Just the idea of that food is nauseating.
