Life Happens: Sunburn, classes, etc.

So I had my garage sale on Saturday which I think was successful. I sold my computer for a lot less than I ideally wanted to, but it went to someone I know so at least I know it's going to a good home. I tend to get really attached to my stuff, so my computer felt like a huge part of me and I didn't want someone to take it just to take it apart and mess with it. But I didn't have any sunscreen on because I don't have any and didn't have any money to go get some. I knew my arms would get burned, but I didn't think my face would - usually it just gets a little red.

Nope. It burned. Badly. I have blisters all over my face. Now, I just want the week to be over so my face and arms can heal and I can go on with my life without pain.

So... for math, I have to study really hard. My teacher put the test in the testing center for me so I can take it when I can - I've been really busy and sick, and now this sunburn. I think I'm going to take it Wednesday so I'm going to study all day tomorrow.

Today, I'm going to try and finish my ENG class. I have to do all of the wiki work, which quite frankly, I'm completely not interested in. I'm going to do as much as I can make myself and then settle for whatever happens.

In the meantime, I'm trying to avoid mirrors and touching my face...

Hey Jess, Sorry bout that sun burn. Glad you sold the computer. I'm gald you posted an update about the sale too.

What I really wanted to say is, damn it, am I not looking forward to working on the wiki either. At first I didn't think it would be a problem. I was excited. Then i felt like everyone else was taking all the topics. I've gotten a bit discouraged. But like you I'm gonna try my best with what time i have left. I've enjoyed reading your blogs. Take care and have nice summer.

I'll try not to let my cat eat anymore wires... although he thinks he's hungry for them all of the time!!!
