Aargh. Am home. Am on bloody fucking laptop as much of house's contents are still in the garage post-re-wiring. Have been helping by removing random nails and helping heft beds up the stairs. Yawn.
Um. Thing? Oh. Yes. Have stuff written-ish, but must type up, so on, so forth.
Have been entertaining myself with the Dulux website, trying out combinations - because, y'see, having room painted on Monday, must go buy paint tomorrow, must thus decide what colours, was thinking yellow and blue, but the shades are not quite what I wanted, but there's this "Moroccan Blue" that I simply adore at the moment but knowing my luck they won't have it in the shop. But none of the yellows seem to go right with it. Because, see, I want the blue on the big wall and yellows on the other three, but I think that blue doesn't want yellow with it, it wants, maybe, pale blue or grey or... gah. I so could not be a designer.
Headache... want sleep... want 'nando... um. something. have emails to send.

Date: 2003-08-16 04:53 pm (UTC)sounds good, but I'm not that keen on cream in large quantities, and half the house is probably going to get painted magnolia (unimaginative parentals)...
