And, well, younger.
Good lord. That was...2000! Seven, almost eight years ago! Wow. We were *babies*!!
Mal: You tell me right now, little Kaylee, you really think you can do this? Kaylee: Sure. Yeah. I think so. 'Sides, if I mess up, not like you'll be able to yell at me.

Natter 54: Right here, dammit.

I take it all of the L.A. people are okay, if likely to be wildly inconvenienced by the freeway accident/fire?
That is a CRAZY accident. I do take the truck ramp when I take that route so that freaks me out a bit. But it's been a while since I've driven up to SF so....
meara, I've seen pics of your place, but I can't wait to see it with fresh colors. Our living room is an orangey color and I love it. The hallway is brown (not so good) and the bedrooms are greenish/yellow, sort of like bile.
Lee! ACK! That's no good.
In honor of some of you canada folks, I had my first doner kabab sammich. Twas YUM!
I've spent too too too much money this week, but we did get a ridiculous amazing stroller I'm in love with.

I thought I was having a migraine today. But then the SO was all, have you been drinking enough water? And I was like, no. And I went and got some and felt better immediately. Not only had I not brought in my normal liter water bottle to lessons this morning, I drank coffee instead. And then didn't have anything else to drink all day. No wonder I was feeling bad. Happier now.

meara, I know. Freaky, no? I was in my twenties! Plotting to get away. Snort. That worked well, no?
Someday, I'll have a place to paint. Kat, from what I've seen in pix of Noah, I like the colors in your LR.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yikes, Lee! That does not sound good At All.
I love my bright yellow bedroom.
This is going to be one of the few nights of the year I close my living room window -- when the heat comes on, it will be fine open until it gets really freezing. But man, my apartment was freezing this morning.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I'm picking colors. The master bath we've finally settled on with a sort of turquoise/greeny glass accent tile with white, black, and brushed nickel. It'll go with the sort of green glass vessel sinks there.
Then the main open area will be primarily white with black trim and red as an accent color. We'll put red as an accent wall behind the dining area, to separate it from the kitchen and living space. And I'll put a red accent wall in the office, too.
But beyond that I'm kinda baffled. How different should the rest of the rooms be? The studio will have the same walls as the rest of the open area, but a different floor (cork) to differentiate it, and to provide some acoustic relief from the tile.
The rest of the house is all tile, a variegated black in the living room and master bedroom and a variegated white through the rest. I guess it's just the master bedroom and the guest bedroom/media lounge I need to decide on. Should those be different?

Liese, I have no recs on color (I are an engineer after all) but I just want to say, Hydrate or Die! That was my favorite ad campaign from Camelback, and I have a sticker that says that on my camping lexan wine glass.

Jen, did you IKEA? Whenever I go to White Marsh, that's usually the point.
Heh. No, I actually met a friend there for lunch. It's a good more or less halfway point for my peeps from the DC area and me. We wait for each other at the Starbucks next to the movie theater, then go to one of the restaurants around there. Sometimes we shop; today, not so much, though there was strolling.
It's kind of our solution for wanting to get together but not having the time for a full-on weekend visit.
Liese, all I've got is that I'd want my master br to be a light, tranquil color.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Kat's living room is indeed a gorgeous color. Plus it has cool built-in shelve-y things and stuff.

Hydrate or Die!
I know, right? Usually I'm good about it. But I'd just spaced it all day. But I'm having a nice cool glass of water right now, and I'm not dying!
Liese, all I've got is that I'd want my master br to be a light, tranquil color.
Yeah. Tranquil would be good. And it's going to be such a pretty room. There are lovely views out the north-facing windows. Maybe something that ties into that a little bit.
Maybe something warmer, more intimate, sensual.
It's possible I'm overthinking this.
Where was that website of ita's that did color palettes?
