I haven't had a sunburn since I was 12. It was one of those real bad ones that peel hurt like a fucker. After that I swore to myself "never, ever again." So far I've kept that promise to myself.
So here's what else that's been going on recently:
Years ago one of my cousins got a Game Boy from our aunt while she was visiting us. (We lived in different states then.) This was way back when the only Game Boys around were the big grey ones with the greenish screen and dinosaurs roamed the earth. :) Since our aunt rarely thinks things through she neglected to get a game to go along with it.
So here I am minding my own business playing my own games when my aunt tells me I should give her one of my games and she'd rebuy it for me later. Typically this was all BS and I basically got jacked. Especially since I barely even tolerated this cousin in the first place.
So the other day this cousin comes over trying to raise money so she can go and get her nails done. :roll: Only a complete idiot would buy an obsolete, scratched up Game boy that looks like it was about to fall apart at any second so naturally I told her I wasn't interested. She gets pissed and stalks off to smoke in the backyard since it isn't allowed in the house.
Turning to leave I had one of those, now just wait a damn minute here moments and go back to the place where she put down the game boy and the games. Sure enough there was the game I had 'given' her years before, it still had my initials on it since my mother used to put them on everything which always annoyed the hell out of me since I hate my initials. Without a second thought I snatched it, cleaned it up and to my great surprise it still works.
The funniest thing is that my cousin still has no idea its gone.
