Courage does not always roar. Sometimes, it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying,
"I will try again tomorrow".

Reporting on my results...
So, I thought I would use the bottled stuff to even things out, so I can maybe attempt to wear a swimsuit sometime this lifetime. Bought the Neutrogena gradual-schmadual lotion.
First night: applied only to the untanned portions of my upper legs and belly.
Second morning: realized that I completely missed the whole, ummm, bikini area from the an inch at the top of my legs all the way around
Second night: noticed that, although blending in better, there was still a noticeable difference in colors between real and fake. I'll do another coat, but this time, do the whole leg.
Third morning: front was looking pretty good, until I turned sideways and saw that I completely missed the sides and backs of my legs - huge vertical stripe, which, trust me here, looks a whole lot worse than the original horizontal stripe from the bike shorts.
Third evening: noticed blotches on the tops of my feet and toes, where I apparently dripped lotion.
I've given up. If the risk of skin cancer wasn't there, I would seriously consider a tanning bed with only my arm and leg warmers on.
Heading to the zoo to join the zebras....

Thanks for the update-and the giggle!
I used to have an open mind but my brains kept falling out.

I'm with you Audio - I was trying to even out my hands but the colours will Never match and the more I tried to at least make my hands darker, the more unlike the rest of me they looked. I"m just gonna live with the 2 dark glove patches on the backs of my hands, the little tan dots from the crochet holes, the lines across the backs of all my fingers and wrists!

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"

BA HAHAHA hahaha HAHA.........I am getting flashbacks from my QT days!!!! I am so glad to know I am not the only one out there concerned with funny looking lines...SO concerned I color myself silly with various shades of orange!
You'd think I was trying to match my mtbike...it's orange
I am a nobody; nobody is perfect, and therefore I am perfect.
