I have painted my own rooms, and hired a pro, and I will never do my own painting again. I have more money than time. I would rather fuck, workout, take the dogs to the park, fuck, learn how to play golf, give and/or receive oral sex, iron clothes, shop for furniture or clothes or groceries, masturbate, clean the house, download songs from itunes, post here, or bill, for chrissakes, than prep for or clean up after painting.
I also like that the painter nearly perfected very flawed walls and trim and made nearly perfectly straight ceiling lines when I don't even have straight walls.

Word. Especially if you have an accent wall or the ceiling is left white. Painting straight lines is harder than it sounds. After we painted our old bedroom in a taupe-y beige with an accent wall, the painter left a perfect line between the bedroom wall and the bathroom (no door).
Our neighbors painted their kitchen avocado (puke) green and the line on the wall between the kitchen wall and the living room wall was hysterically funny. Kind of like she was drunk when she did it.
She asked what we thought about the paint. What do you say? Hey, looks great, except for the color and those crooked lines.
