Goddam.

That is one yellow hallway.

I mean, it makes a statement and that statement is Yellow.

I can't even put a mirror up to reflect the light, or its going to look suspiciously like the twin suns of Carcosa.

So, yeah, it was this strange deep lavender grey taupe colour, in a house facing North/East, and yes that was a lot of dark space, gloomy without being particularly atmospheric. This certainly has atmosphere...

Good things, it really adds to the sense of width, it feels spacious. It is pleasant, there's no sadness in it at all, and the blue study behind the yellow wall looks cracking, even with its lights off.

Bad news? Well, this is stark. Not sterile stark like a white clinic, but it's taking no prisoners. You better goddam like goddam yellow. And when you go into other rooms, they all seem a bit faded in comparison.

Oh yes, there's been lots going on and all of it has been the kind of sinking stuff that just grinds one into a bad place; lost cat, illness, unhappy friends. But the cat is home, illness passes, friends deal with whatever they deal with, and now I have a yellow hall. It makes me laugh.
