::Flops exhaustedly to couch::
Over the last couple of weekends, I've made two trips to Home Depot, three visits to the corner hardware store, three jaunts to IKEA; I've used up 40 hollow-wall anchors, a Ryobi battery pack, a Philips screwdriver bit, and a quart each of drywall mud, primer, and paint; and I've required several ibuprofen tablets...
Area 1.2, Living Room TV Corner, started out here:
then took this detour:
but finally today arrived at its destination:
Meanwhile, Areas 3.1.a, b, and c, Kitchen Hardware Shelves and The Floor Underneath 'Em, which started out here:
are also completely finished, with help today from

Holy shit, that was a lot of work! That's FOURTEEN areas done now. Fifty-two more to go.
I'm going to bed.

In short: I may have overshot just a bit. But by these fits and starts does my life progress, and by no other means.
All I can say is: thin slices. Very, very thin slices. It's amazing how powerful that idea is.
(Also, you're right that the paint match is spot on...I'm impressed.)

Okay, scaring myself now. Stopping, stepping away slowly, and doing something...else.
I actually haven't watched the Collector's Edition. I put it on with commentary, and really found that I didn't want to listen to it. It might be another year or two before I really feel like seeing that movie again.
Firefly, on the other hand, I can watch regularly, at any time.
We're both dorky. What can I say? I too watched LOTR over the holidays.
And yes, my sitting place is diametric to that corner and I do sit and enjoy looking at it. I'm doing it right now, in fact. It's very satisfying.
