Painting, At Last!
Today the two teams of painters–one hired by us, one provided by our contractors–started painting the house. The Eight Year-Old chose “Bayberry Blue” for his room, provided his radiator and door are black (”I’m a goth! I’m a goth!” he crowed).
One of my painters told me he and his band are to be inducted into the New Zealand Rock’n'Roll Hall of Fame this June. How cool is that? Plus he’s got the awesome accent, although I got confused when he told me he needed ‘caulk.’

You can definitely get into trouble having conversations about caulk. Cuz really, lose the ‘l’ and it gets,um, interesting. Which is actually how most people I know pronounce it.

Tell your son goths don’t crow–they’re too busy being depressed to talk at all, really. (Too busy for Pokemon, too, I suppose!!)
Though Bayberry Blue sounds lovely…

Is New Zealand guy cute? And more importantly, is he single?

EKM, NZ guy is very cute–think of a more rumpled Gabriel Byrne–but he is married.
And thanks, guys, it really does look awesome. I was just over there, and I am breathless.

Obviously I’m doing something wrong. You have two teams of painters and I have *carry the zero* ME
