at 8:53 AMTime Can Remember
Yesterday I laid out on my stomach on a mat in the middle of the pool for two hours. However, I forgot to put sunscreen on the back of my legs, and they are now charred. It hurts to sit down, it hurts to walk, and later today or tomorrow I ought to let the same thing happen to the front of me. This disappoints me; I took a certain amount of pride in my lily-white skin. Oh, well.
Chris and I drove through his old neighborhood yesterday. Trying to start from the top of a hill, I killed his car at least six times. Otherwise I did fine.
Afterward we went to another strip mall picking up job applications. Then we went to Silky's Custard, presumably for another application, but also to taste the merchandise and to ascertain whether it had been poisoned. Chris maintained that I should not work at a joint that would poison its customers. I agreed as I spooned my hot fudge sundae. Mmm... hot fudge...
