Haha, yeah the snooki look is a bit tacky. The good thing is it will fade. I don't do the sun, I have VERY fair skin and lots of sun damage. I'm the dork with the big hat. My family all have beautiful latte-toned skin, and I'm very jealous of them.

Im a pale person as well. And the last time i got a spray tan it looked really nice. However this time it went a little over board.

My friends say its not too bad its just shocking because I am usually so fair.

I'm extremely pale too. I've never been someone to lay out in the sun. But I still have lots of sun damage just from living everyday life.

I'd look very weird with a spray tan. It just wouldn't go with my coloring.

I worked with Europeans who purpose didn't want tan skin. They'd put on sunscreen before going out to lunch.

With Indians, it makes sense because they don't want to look darker (i.e. black). My Indian friends have told me this.

Their culture is very racist in India. The last thing they want is Americans mistaking them for black. That's their fear.

With fair skinned Europeans, it's either being aware of the risks of skin cancer/aging wrinkles or it's a fashion statement to have extremely pale skin.

Just tried to clean the coffee maker. Except I forgot to put the basket in and 8 cups of vinegar water just leaked out the bottom and went all over the counter.

I don't think I'm going to operate any heavy machinery today.

Happens to the best of us.

The first day I lived alone I put dish washing soap (Dawn Liquid, for hand washing in the sink) in my dishwasher. Hello bubble bath.

Dew - does your kitchen smell like Easter eggs now? LOL.....I use vinegar a lot to clean stuff but I still associate the smell of vinegar with dying Easter eggs!

Now that's funny. The whole house smells like I'm using a PAAS kit to dye eggs for Easter. Lots and lots of eggs.

You had it mm.

Thankfully it's a nice day and I can open the windows. The day I cooked EasyMac in the microwave without any water it was 40 degrees outside and getting the smoke out of the house just about froze me out.
