The laundry room is glowing.

We are getting a new (to us) washer and dryer on Saturday, and we're going to bring it straight to the house. Thus, I had to hustle and get the laundry room painted, because I don't want any white rooms in the house, and it would be a pain once we moved in.
So, off to Home Depot to pick paint. I already had an idea in my head for what I wanted, but I perused the paint chips just to be sure. Yep, still like the same color -- a really saturated aqua tone from the Behr Disney line called "Ariel's Song." There is some irony at play here since I am not a fan of the Little Mermaid (don't get me started), but I do love Ursula and am hoping to incorporate a little of her evil into the laundry decor later on.


So, I got the room taped off, and started painting. After a little while, I hear Brian's voice: "That sure is a blue room."
And then Andrea: "Holy crap it's glowing!"

I laughed, but just kept painting. A little while later, I went out to the living room to get a sip of soda. As I was walking back to the laundry room, I saw what Andrea and Brian were talking about -- the color from the laundry room was casting a blue sheen all over the hallway. That's one yummy saturdated color! The picture below only kind of captures the glow coming from the suds lounge:
