I picked a darker blue for my bedroom and now I'm having second thoughts. Afraid it'll be overwhelming. I really like the color though.
Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity. I can handle myself.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Zen, we painted our bedroom a kind of sage-y green, and we really like it. I think your first instinct is probably the right one.

I like Cloudburst. I have an IKEA bookshelf in birch. I could get a couch in gray and throw on some colorful pillows: [link]

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
but it's only 460 sq ft.
That seems tiny! Which of course reminds me of the people in tiny houses article. Why linked to it? I feel like it must have been someone here.

I might've just sold the other 10k btu ac window unit I have. Haven't used it since the first year, too scary to install it, manage fine without. Offered it up for borrowing /third the cost ($100) if it works to the new neighbors. They are interested. It's six years old, but only used one season, so should work fine. And I flat out told them it's fine if they borrow it thru summer and just pay me once they decide to keep it, cause I remember the moving bills shock.

I like peacock plume, but plummy would be really nice in a bright space too.

I think any of those colors could be very livable. Do you have clothes in any of them, shrift? If any look particularly good on you in a shirt, they'd probably make a nice framing device for you as a wall.

Because books.
I like something a little warmer than Plummy, I think.
