The walls are done and most of the trim. It's really great walking in for the first time and seeing the color - everything is just warmer than before. Our accent color is not what I expected. The swatches made it look as if the colors were further apart than what they're looking like on the walls. Looks like it's an optical illusion, though. It depends on lighting and the angle that you look at the wall. The third accent color is even better than I thought, turning out slightly lighter and redder than the swatches (actually, all of the colors are slightly redder, but that could just be lighting). That color as an accent is like the best move yet with the painting. It's a small wall, but it just punches it up so well, we're both pretty psyched about it.
And it's just damn paint.
Happy 05/05/05! Kinda cool in a very geeky sort of way. We've only got one opportunity each year for the next seven so we might as well celebrate Symmetry Day...
What am I doing up?... Long story, other than Carol being up, the TV is on, I have 2 cooped-up rabbits running around my bedroom, and they've blocked-off Michigan Avenue downtown because of the Bombing outside the British Embassy in New York... (that's why the TV was on because Carol heard the police calls on the scanner...)
