The 4th weekend in the house, I painted my bedroom. You would think\u00a0that’d be a fairly simple task, but no, nothing in this house is ever\u00a0allowed to be simple. See, my bedroom is paneled. Just like the\u00a0kitchen, and the other bedroom. Well, not just like, since the\u00a0bedrooms have both been painted in the past, while the kitchen is still unabashedly knotty pine. Anyhow, the point here: painting\u00a0paneling. Instead of just rollering the nice flat surface of the wall\u00a0in every direction, and only having to cut in edges, suddenly, there\u00a0are edges everywhere. Every single groove between panels has to have a\u00a0paintbrush run along it. So I’d spend 45 minutes cutting in and\u00a0painting every line, then roller the flat surface in less than 10\u00a0minutes, and then start again on the next wall. Oh yeah, and I was\u00a0painting it yellow, so it took two coats. But it ended up lovely,\u00a0really. Even with the evil paneling of evil.<\/p>\n

That week, I also got an awesome pendant lamp for the living room –\u00a0even with the seven(!) lamps, it just really needed an overhead\u00a0light. I got one that can plug into a wall outlet, but that I can also\u00a0eventually convert into a standard ceiling fixture when I finally hire\u00a0an electrician. The lamp is perfect – and now I have two lights that come on when I flip the wall switch, so I’m not living in\u00a0semi-darkness.
