I walk by a 100 Watt lightbulb and get dark.
I got my dads coloration. He was a german decendant from Missouri, but people always thought he was mojao*, cause he was always that dark. Of course in his later years, he was always getting melanomas cut out of his back. So I guess I have that to look forward too. I'll spend the rest of my life with a John McCain style band aid on the side of my head. If it dosent kill me first.
But I always look damn good in the summers, lol.
*Mojao (I think I am spelling it right - couldnt find a tex-mex online dictionary) is slang, used by both anglos and hispanics in Texas for really dark skinned hispanics that have a lot of indiginous blood in them and are usually undocumented and earn a living as day-laborers. I dont use that term in a hateful way. Its not used in a hateful manner here. Its simply a descriptive term.
