True Colors

I went to the park today and lounged by the pool for a few hours. I have a wedding to go to next week and I'm trying to get some color. But all that seems to happen is I burn in odd places and my face gets more freckly. I saw a family friend while I was at the park and when I told her I was there tanning she laughed hysterically for like five minutes. Then she left me with these supposedly "wise" words of advice, "Pale skin is beautiful." Yeah, if you're Nicole Kidman then pale skin is beautiful. On me it just makes me look pasty.

I'm going back on Friday cause it's supposed to be mostly sunny.
