I really hate it... It's the least favorite thing I can think of to do around the house. It's time consuming. And I suck at it.

Today was no exception. Bathroom remodeling project. Entire bathroom has been stripped bare. Walls floated and sanded. Now it's time to prime them for top coat. Yes, I'm even priming like your supposed to. The paint guy at OSH would be proud.

Rather than do everything correctly, I take shortcuts. So instead of getting a small can to hold a small amount of primer to paint the corners and such, I just pour it into the roller pan. Then I balance the roller pan on top of the 2-step ladder I'm using. It's one of those that is about 3 feet tall, folds out and has a big handle around the top to carry it around. That's what I balanced the roller pan on.I climb up on the second step. I'm merrily (that's not true...) painting away when I feel something wet on my left thigh. I look down and there's a big stream of primer running from my waist down my left leg, dripping all over my shoes. We're talking a pint or so of primer here. The roller pan had tilted slightly since I wasn't paying attention to it and started pouring paint down my leg. The paint guy at OSH would no longer be proud of me. Oh, and did I also mention that there is now paint all over the ladder?

I hate painting...

#43 could be quite a feat...

Probably up to something I shouldn't have been... Damn, I envy these people...
