Long ago, (Summer '95?) when I was still new in my current job, and had not yet dyed my hair black, I went to fire island with a few friends. To be nice, I dressed to fit in... OK I tried.

Me having a wonderful day at the beach...
Don't get me wrong, I LOVE the beach, but I tend to like to walk on them when the sun is not so intense.

My version of sunbathing. I'm not trying to be uber-goth or anything, but I simply can't grasp why people can just lay there to cook in the sun.
(This is a decent shot of my natural hair color - enough peope have asked about it so I may as well point it out.)
