My god how I hate getting sun burnt. A bud of mine stopped by this weekend and we decided to do some fishing. We were under the causeway catching blowfish and at some point we got too stoned to notice to remember sun block (which we had). By the time we got back, we were both hurting pretty bad. It's not blisters or anything, but I didn't sleep for shit last night (my back is burnt worse than anything). My fucking ears are burnt and about 90% of my job is done on the phone. Getting high helps a little, but I ususally just forget about the pain till I move the wrong way or scratch and itch without thinking. So yea, sun burn sucks ass.

One time I had 2nd degree sun burns all over my chest and back. I couldn't do anything but sit on the edge of the couch and breath shallowly for a week. I spent 3 days in a row all day in hot sun in a pool with no shirt and no sun screen. Burns on top of burns. Now I just stay in the shade. :D

GD that must've sucked. I'm ususally pretty good about lathering up. At least my wife is good at reminding me, but she was at the beach that day. The worst part is that it's gonna be misery out in the sun till it heals, and I was gonna go do some more fishing tomorrow morning.

That sucks man. But seriously, you need to get some aloe if you haven't already.. last summer my friends mom had some actual aloe vera plants where we broke open the leaf/stem thing, and I used that natural aloe on my burn. It worked like magic.

I burn easily too, so I always have a bottle of it ready for the summer months. Slather that shit on good, let it dry, and it should take a lot of the itching away. Just keep your burn moisturized though.. it'll reduce peeling and help your burn heal faster. :thumbsup:

yea, I've been using after sun loation with aloe for the most part with several other varieties around the house. Pretty much have to have it to live in FL i think. May be a state law :smokin:
