Never Say Never

That's my motto!


I told myself I would NEVER try self tanning lotion. The main reason was because there was a girl in my high school who wore it and looked ORANGE. I mean, flat out, bright, silly looking ORANGE. I just knew that with my ultra, fair skin, I would look orange myself, so I have avoided the self tanning lotion like I avoid sky diving, or bungee jumping or anything else that just down right scares the CRAP out of me!

However, I am SO tired of looking pasty white. I have been wearing shorts and think to myself, "Who cares how white my legs are?" But, then Bob took a pic. of me and Pay at her soccer game. I was wearing shorts. I took one look at the picture and gasped in the horror that was my white legs!

Since I don't have time to tan, and I know it isn't good for my skin I decided, I was just going to have to go against my promise to myself and break down and use the self tanner. Of course, I consulted with my friend who wears it, swears by it, and looks pretty darn fantastic, I might add, and then I did it! I went shopping yesterday and picked me up a bottle. I even used it today after I got out of the shower.

I am nervous, I will not lie. My inner voice is shouting skepticism, but I won't let it.

Wish me luck...

By that I mean, streak free, zero spotting, not at all orange looking, only naturally bronze appearing legs!

I'm dreaming aren't I?
