I need the sun, too. But I don't tan. Not at all.
I just feel so yucky on cloudy days. That Seasonal Affective Disorder, I think.
I use mega sunscreen when I leave the house. My face, neck and hands, especially.
For some reason, the thought of old lady wrinkly age spotty hands just drives me up a wall.

The sun is evil though. It burns us. Literally.

I didn't take ALL the grapes or 'lope. Just made sure my helping had no honey dew. So I'm only a teeny-tiny bad person.
Why is this bad? It's Honeydew not Mountain Dew.

Huh? No, I didn't say anything.
So, not to change the subject but anyone here ever see the Mansiere episode of Seinfeld?

Bright light, sunshine!
I very much agree with that assessment. Who needs that darn thing anyway?
Oh yes I agree too. I hate sunlight and avoid it whenever possible

After tracking all my health stuff for a couple of years now, I realized that I feel significantly better when I spend time in the sun. So I did some research, and it looks like Vitamin D deficiency has been linked to increased autoimmune activity. And I'm likely Vitamin D deficient, since I don't drink milk at all (cow or otherwise). Dr. Well Intentioned dismissed the Vitamin D thing out of hand (grrrr, I'm going to the webpage and switching my primary doctor right now) and told me to drink milk. Gee, thanks.
I'm being careful about it -- only 20-30 minutes of natural sun exposure, 2-3 times a week, if I'm going to be out longer than that, I put on sunscreen -- but if I have the choice between increase autoimmune activity right now (huge family and personal history of autoimmunity; making my life hell right now) or the risk of cancer later (zero family history; could make life hell later), I'm going to have to risk the cancer. On the bright side, I haven't burned since I was a kid.

Ahhh, not the DayStar. We hatesesss it .....
I think I really do have some vampire in me. Can't stand the sun, love the nighttime, and am fond of the iron-y taste of blood.
On that note, I am out for the weekend. Y'all have a good one, I am sure to have pictures and stories when I get back (not to mention Ami and the boys will have moved back in).
*hugs* and 
es and chocolate to them that wants or needs it

My momma taught me that you don't get to pick out the things you like...like the marshmallows in the ambrosia salad (leaving behind the stinky pears, of course) or the cashews from the nut bowl (even if you can do it without touching the other inhabitants of the bowl) or the tomatoes in the salad. You take whatever the luck of the draw gives you.
(you can, however, pick and choose once it's on your plate...unless you're a guest...then you eat whatever it is you are served and you do so with a smile...or you may just have to sit at their dinner table until that spinach is gone.

I see. When they shoved the cold porridge under the door of my wooden crate at feeding time, it was to dark to see what I picked from the bowl so I guess I never got that memo. Of course it was porridge though and through so there wasn't anything to pick out except the flies and their--ahem--offspring...
Is this like a Zeek Rule then? We should maybe glossarize (lexiconize?) that term like HK did with the Mandate.

Nope. It was momma-ingrained, not Rugbug imposed. Just like making your bed every morning. And that the best place to keep your pjs during the day is under your pillow (am I really the only one who does that? My old roomies thought I was a loon).
