I was on the beach building sandcastles or swimming in the ocean for most of the day. I was starting to get warm and knew I was sunburned, but didn&#8217;t realize how sunburned until later.<\/p>\n<p>We went out for dinner that evening and I got the shivers &#8211; which I thought was just a reaction to the really cold resturant. I only ate about half my dinner and took the rest back to the condo. That night, in an increasing amount of pain from the sunburn and ensuing blisters &#8211; I lost my dinner in a fairly spectacular fashion. And I had a sore throat the rest of the week as a result.<\/p>\n<p>Monday was spent indoors, fully dressed, and watching TV. Still cold, but feeling ever so slightly better to be out of the harsh sun.<\/p>\n<p>Tuesday &#8211; and the blisters are taking on a life of their own. But only on my back.  My front is a bit sunburned as well, but not as bad.  So, I put on some aloe on my chest to help forestall any problems.   Turns out &#8211; big problem.  I had a terrible reaction to the aloe and started itching like crazy.  And when I say crazy &#8211; I mean full-blown-put-me-in-the-psych-ward kinda crazy. <\/p>\n<p>Part of me wanted to scratch.  Part of me knew better.  My compromise was to rub the affected area &#8211; which still wasn&#8217;t good, but was better than humping a tree.<\/p>\n<p>Got the aloe washed off and tried a couple more anti-histmine flavored sprays &#8211; and it kept getting worse.   I was in full freak-out mode.    So, armed with a stack of paper to keep my hands occupied I was taken to the stat care down the street.<\/p>\n<p>Next time:  Lots of cream and a spiffy new vest.<\/p>\n<div class=\"blogger-post-footer\"><img width='1' height='1' src='https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/tracker\/7938355-112065125859222876?l=approximatelyequalto.blogspot.com' alt='' \/><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sunday had some great weather &#8211; lots of sun and blue skies.
