Wish I Was Ocean Size



This is what you wind up looking like should you a) not apply adequate sunscreen or b) forget to sunscreen your legs and feet at seaworld when on antibiotics. Apparently those warning labels are on there for a reason. Though, in defense, I would have never apllied sunscreen to the tips of my ears or between my toes, and those spots were just as agitated as my legs and feet.



My kids and my li'l bro.

We had a good time, but it is good to be back, not to mention the plane ride home was suicide inducing.

Living by the ocean has always been my dream and everytime I visit an oceanic place I remember why. Despite the power and awe the ocean provides, I feel sooo good when I am in it; I need to remember that feeling sometimes.

sun is shining weather is sweet

I am pretty itchy and stingy from the burn I allowed myself to get at SeaWOrld via too much sun, abx, and not enough sunblock. The baby also had some sort of heat exhaustion/virus/ear infection going on - I have not yet determined which. Nevertheless I found time for a treatment, shopping, the beach, and a nice dinner out. I covered my head and ears with a bandana, got some huge sunglasses, and some zinc sunscreen, so that helped. But I look ridiculous in the pictures, which I will post when I get home.

More beach today. Which means I must lather myself in sunblock and put on my incognito garb.

when I'm a walkin' I strut my stuff

bactrim+levaquin+too much sun at seaworld = one uncomfortable woman.

We are having fun here in CA. My son surfed today and appparently caught right on and rode a few waves in to shore. I however, opted for some stupid reason not to use sunscreen on my legs when we went to sea world and now have a horrible allergic sun reaction from my meds. What a genius. I need to do some treatments as I haven't done them since I got here (which means I have missed two treatments), and I am starting to feel it.

San Diego is nice though. Too bad I am afraid of the ocean. That isn't to mean I don't love it, but all I can think about is getting attacked by some creature. Nevertheless, I rode a few waves myself yesterday. Tomorrow, more beach, more good food, more drink. Not too shabby.
