Look, I was sporting gray and yellow light years before it was “in”. Shouldn’t there be some reward for those of us who discover an offbeat color scheme before it appeals to the masses? Once the look is all over the blogosphere and on the pages of what’s left of the the design magazines, I feel a real itch to move on. I need to move on, not because it’s everywhere, but because for some reason I like to be different. I know it may be a little kooky, but I genuinely enjoy being different. It’s been a lifelong struggle and I only hope there is at least one other poor schmuck that understands this personality disorder.

Anywho, I’m still loving gray walls with yellow, orange, red or magenta. I’ll give this scheme another year and then maybe I’ll have to ditch it for some new offbeat look. As long as I keep the big things neutral, I can easily change the small stuff. I don’t sweat the small stuff.
