1. If possible, never paint your house yourself.
2. Get a paint sprayer.
3. If you can't afford a paint sprayer, allow yourself at least a week to paint (cause of course it will rain,) and another week to recoup from the soar muscles.
4. Try and stay away from the whiskey while painting.
5. There are about 3 bazillion shades of white.
6. After spending 30 minutes trying to decide between "swiss coffee" white and "egret" white, your house will still end up fucking white!!!
7. It sucks when it gets windy and the whole side of your freshly painted house is now covered in dirt.
8. Never buy a paint sprayer from Ace Hardware, cause they don't work. Plus then you have to try and return it, and the people don't be liking that. In the meantime, you've lost another day of work.
