GOtta always apply Solbar sunblock #50 to my face/body when I am outside in the sun , otherwise my face will burn and the white spots get real pink and will burn. I have no more pigment on my lips & now have to switchup my darn lipstick colors!! so annoying! lol

Feelin Fat and Happy to eat this July 4th -LOL

I know it's the July 4t holiday and I have not worked out in 2 darn weeks!! In Cali that is ridiculous and now all my friends will be cooking up some lavish dishes and gettin' down with the real BBQ meat and some awesome fish. AND what will I do, eat like a pig.

Lately, I have been an emotional eater because I am stressen from doing so much behind the scenes in preparing my television pilot of this blog. Two tapings are scheduled in July and August. The first one went really well and my dear friend, Lucy Blanco was a wonderful guest on the first show.

Soon or later I will create a link so that you can view some excerpts from the show. In the meantime, I am going to attempt to do 100 crunches to prepare for the food frenzy I will be on this weekend! Everybody has got to pig out once in a while-lol

I was in my sista Djuna's convertible yesterday and the sun was burning the hell out of my arms even after I had layered up with 38 sun block! She was like "sweetie are you uncomfortable I can put the top up", that was so sweet because not too many people are aware that the sun rays between 11am to 3p are so dangerous especially for is Vitiligoans! ( I just made up that word) I seem to forget that sometimes, but believe u me, when I start to burn on my skin, I am quickly reminded of my imperfections--Damn!

This holiday I will hang out with my friends the Holland family (they are having a dinosaur named after them at the Natural History Museum of California) www.nihm.org and swim in the pool with major sunblock and do about 10 laps and then come up for air and sip on my pink-tini! I am sure I will post some pics of me swimming, I am curious to see how my white spots shine in the blue water. It's the creative side in me! :-) sometimes I want to see how other people see me with Vitiligo.

Have a safe Fourth and eat up darn it!!-LOL

Hi this is Angela, want to say I truly enjoyed having u over for the 4th, backgammon board and all. I had to tell the non Chicagoan's that this is truly a non west coast thing. A good time was had by all, and by the way, my beloved Montana is not senile!!!!
