It looks like the revenge of the West LA meet. My nose, cheeks and forehead are all peeling. My nose is the worst.

Who said that we ornamentals don't burn easily????

I see that I am not the only Asian that peels. I suffered the same fate from S2KDays. I never knew that I could burn!!!

if you're stuck in a cubicle all day long with AC, you'll burn.

Hey Mingster,

At least you're getting the flourescent light tan.

Urmil,

I guess we should probably use sunscreen more often. I never thought that I would byrn this badly either. My arms and legs though, have a really nice tan. Unfortunately, I have the "golfers" tan on my arms. I should've worn a tanktop like 9000RPM did.

Dude, Aloe is my best friend after a day in the sun. If you're already peeling it's probably too late though. Next time you get a sunburn, apply some pronto, and continue to apply periodically until your burn turns into a nice golden tan. Check Wal-Mart and you'll probably find a million different brands of "after-sun lotion" and the like. Living in Florida, I've learned my lesson.

Better your nose than your paint, I always say.

Hey Tedow,

I tried that aloe thing and it never seems to work for me. My sunburns are probably too severe for aloe to help out. Just got to be more careful and apply some sunscreen the next time.

Gotta admit though, the burns were well worth it. The day was probably one of the best ones we've had this month for driving along the coast. Usually, the marine layer comes in and it's overcast.
