(I am firmly convinced that monsters live in the basement of this 19th century house – that used to be a carriage house for the Church next door. Bart is downstairs talking to someone. There is no one else down there. And this confirms my theory that there are monsters in the basement. And that he is attempting to keep them under control, and me ignorant of them, so that I am not afraid to do the laundry down there. And you know what? It’s not working.)
