i used behr too. rated good in consumer reports:) just make sure to go over each spot enough with the rollers, u don't want thin spots showing through once dry.
 

If I'm painting white-painted drywall (non-glossy), do I need to prime first?

do couple foot by couple foot rectangles, and do it in a way that minimizes the drying edge.. so like go down a wall before across or whatnot. first Z shape to unload the roller, then roll across it. and no primer. just clean off wall with damp cloth.
