we finally had to shoot old paint
mr. man and i spent this last weekend paining the bedroom. if some strange company hadn't eaten my other domain i could show you the old pics. i'm so very happy. i moved in almost exactly 6 years ago and i've wanted to paint the bedroom, badly, for 6 years. it's a lot easier when there's someone else making sure you don't just lay down for one more nap.
it went from crappy dirty beige to fabulous bamboo. and the ceiling is painted a half tint of the same color. so pretty. click on the pic and check out the other photos of the project. (did i mention that i ripped out the carpet one afternoon a couple of weeks ago? note the hardwood that was underneath.)
i was walking back from the cafeteria yesterday with the uber-fabulous april. you might imagine that cafeteria meatloaf would be one-step-over-the-line-sweet-jesus, but it was actually good. anyway, as we were walking back i was doing my hobble from sore muscles in my legs (up and down the tall bench stool 900 times all weekend).
me: sorry for the strange walk, i don't want you to be embarrassed to be seen with me. i'm walking like i got poked in the butt.
april: poked in the butt?!!! what? did he poke you in the butt??!! just tell him no! don't poke me in the butt!
ok, maybe you had to be there, but it was riotously funny at the time.
