If you were to walk into my living room at this very moment this is what you would see:
The color I originally picked came out a little too pink for my tastes. Fortunately we still have nearly a gallon of touch-up paint so I used that to revert things back to the way they were. I will head back to the store tomorrow to select a color that I truly hope works well for the room.
Painting the same spots 3 times to get a favorable result is not exactly what I had in mind when I chose this project as a "good way to kill time". I guess figuring out I don't like the color 2.5 hours into the job is better than getting all the way done, only to be repulsed by it.

Glad you didn't get all the way done and then hate it. Painting can be very cathartic. I have three more rooms to paint, and can't wait to get the chance to do it. Although I fear it will be next year. Can't wait to see the results!
Well, you're definitely accomplishing your goal of killing time - maybe more time than you thought, but just think of it as "bonus" time killing.
So you're going with the darker selection? I had a feeling that light color would be too bright in the end.
Can't wait to see the results =)

I always seem to break out the painting supplies when Dave's away too. Last year I painted my entry too "peachy" ick. At least you're fixing yours right away. Mine is STILL peach.
You amaze me with your talent. Thatta way to go! I also cannot wait to see the results.
