soon my bedroom will be "mint truffle"

I just painted a wall in my kitchen/living room a vivid shade of "tropical mango." This is the first wall I've ever painted in my life.

I am happy to report, in a victory for girly-girls everywhere, that nail polish remover does, in fact, remove excess paint from walls.

This reminds me of all those action movies wherein the hero saves the day by unlocking something with the heroine's bobby pin, thus giving her an excuse to run through the rest of the movie with her hair sexily undone, blowing in the breeze on the back of a motorcycle that then jumps off a bridge as a prelude to a happily-ever-after life of adventure.
