anyone like to paint? then feel free to come and help ben and myself paint our new place. my most awesomest parents drove out from birmingham yesterday to help us get started - but they're paint nazi pros. they love that shit. but we'll probably be doing it for the next week or so, on weekends and afternoons.

the colour is actually "orange spice". we started out with "vintage orange", but that turned out to be way too close to some shade of school bus yellow. bah.

it's a happy fun room. colour is good.

Every room should have color in it! I am now obsessed with color - black no more!

How high does the sycamore grow?
If you cut it down then you'll never know.
And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon.
For whether we are white or copper-skinned.
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
You can own the earth and still
all you'll own is earth until
you can paint with all the colors of the wind.

there's one in the "dining room" and there's also one in the hallway in ben's room.

That blue sample looks like one of the ones I brought home to think about painting my room. Pretty colors!

I hate painting almost as much as I hate ironing!

It looks like you had fun. Crazy colors - all nice and fruity like some children's cereal.

really? i LOVE ironing. maybe it's just a metaphor - the idea of getting the wrinkles out. working out the kinks.

painting, however, is horrible. that's why i'm currently trying to trick others to help me paint. i'm offering valuable consolation prizes, though.

yeh, between the orange in the bedroom and the pink in the bathroom, it's a very smooth sherbety feeling. not as bold as it might seem.

but yeh, we're still painting. i was doing the trim work today. i wanted to kill myself.
