the walls did NOT come crumblin' crumblin'

Somehow, amidst all the rain we've had, we managed to get our basement walls poured before everything caved in.

I know this doesn't look much different than when the forms were just sitting here, but hey...it's progress.

Today they removed the forms and we have actual walls.

Amazing how they can take the forms off and real bricks magically appear.

Who knows how bricks lurk in the form of...forms?

The shadow knows...

This is my domain.  For I am...Phil-zan...

Jane?

There's a car parked on the wall!

Philly says the place looks huge.  I think it looks tiny and I'm already asking when we can build an addition.

In case you didn't believe me about the rain, here's what my Sketchers looked like after tromping about taking pictures.

Yes, I'm really that white. 

Thank God I shaved recently.

In other news, we had dinner.  The chicken thighs aren't worth mentioning, but I did re-heat some leftover Brown Sugar Carrots.  How come they taste so good?  I said yeah...I said yeah...I said yeah...whooo!

Actually, they weren't that great reheated.

Andi: "Why does a reheated baby carrot look like a geriatric Oompa-Loompa penis?  (Am I allowed to say "penis" here?)

Philly:  "You've seen a geriatric Oompa-Loompa penis before?"

Andi:  "Well, no...I guess that's just how I'd picture one."

Philly: "You've pictured one before?"

Andi:  {blink}
