I Fought the Toilet...



and the toilet won. Or so it would have you believe.

Following the ritualistic tearing up of carpet, it is finally time to paint the basement. We cleaned the baseboards, taped off the walls (of which there are A TON) and laid down the primer. The entire process took roughly a day and a half considering I took the project on while waiting for the ADT security service guy and for my car to be repaired.

For the most part, the process was simply long but not altogether difficult. However, I just primed the basement bathroom today and painting around that toilet rocked my world. When combined with the upstairs toilet matchbox car incident, it's Toilets: 2 - Homeowners: 0.

We plan to paint the entire living area of the basement this evening.

I have also uploaded new pictures. Flickr is restricting the number of uploads that I can make, so I've put these on Picasa. They are essentially just pictures from tearing up the carpetting and laying down the primer. You can view the pictures here.
