Speaking as a frequent sunburn sufferer, the only one that will probably work is the shirt you wore Sunday.
Unfortunately, that shirt is dirty (gelato), plus the sunburn is bad/noticeable enough that I want to cover it.
Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Lee, try using aloe vera gel with lidocaine. It helps with the pain. Also, tylenol or advil or whatever pain reliever of your choice.

Lee, when you get home, run a tepid bath and throw 5 or 6 bags of plain black tea into the tub. The tannins in the tea will help with the sunburn.

Thanks for the suggestions.
I'm pretty well adviled up, but I will have to steal some black tea from here, and stop at Walgreen's on my way home so I can try the other stuff.

What is even happening?
Okay, time to take my perkygoth self out to nap in the car.
Bats and glitter! Bats and glitter!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The funniest thing about being perkygoth for a day is that people are staring at my knees. I've worn most of this outfit together before (white peasant blouse with black trim, black knee-length skirt with crinolines, waist cincher, granny boots), but the piece de resistance...stripey tights. I could be topless and I'm not sure people would notice.
Unfortunately I must take this amusement to polish a document in which someone added changes in red and struck out and reddened replaced text...but not by using Track Changes. They formatted manually each time.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OMG, I had a class (where we were creating one large document among the 30 of us) with people who couldn't figure out Track Changes. That shit is bananas.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Yeah, my poor officemate was Word-illiterate and had no clue what that red stuff was.

It's one thing not to "get" it, a whole nother thing to try to replicate it with font formatting. @@
