So, as some of you know, we're in the midst of upheaval here in the beachlass household, as we get ready to move in July. This morning, my round of details took me to the hardware store, to pick up paint chips for the new house. Painting inside would be nice, (I'm leaning towards yellow) and I'm definitely putting some stain or paint on the unfinished deck and verandah (blue? could I even go with a purple??)

So here is beachlass, standing in the paint section of the local hardware store, hand over her mouth, repressing hysterical laughter. Why? Oh.

Oh.
Oh.
Oh.

Because front and centre in their display of decorative paint techniques is one called Frottage. No. Really there is... I'm not making it up, or even hallucinating. I came home from the hardware store with a brochure that says things like "Frottage: Step by Step"

Perhaps you could do the walls in frottage and the trim in bukkake?

I too, once yearned to be the person who named the colors. I wanted to name paint and lipstick and fabric swatches. And hmm, I think I might just get some writing out of this idea....

Go with purple! Purple and blue are excellent colors. Do both! A purple deck with shiny blue-stained rails. It will be glorious!

And you win the points for using a sexual term beachlass needed to look up. Thank god for wikipedia - the other links for bukkake didn't exactly look like something I wanted to click.

Purple and blue? I don't think I've got the nerve - we don't all live near San Francisco. But I did pick out some lilac paint chips for the bedroom.
