I already knew, that to some degree, I am an Evolutionary Failure, but this trip reinforced that.
I got sunburned in Wales.
No, I didn’t think it was possible either, but I pulled it off. I looked in the mirror after a day of hiking and my face and neck were burned. When I woke up the next morning there was a note on my pillow:
Dear Joshua,
Look, lets just be honest with ourselves, this isn’t working out. We’ve really tried, but after yesterday’s little display it is clear that you can’t live here anymore.
I am sorry to trouble you with this, but Natural Selection and I are going to have to do something about this. Sunburned in Wales?! This can’t continue.
Sincerely, The Earth
