Nice! That's the way it should be (or at least, that's the way I remember it as a kid) - Just a huge box of random pieces and your imagination going for gold! What could be better?! Having instructions on what and how to make things always bored me as a child (actually, it still bores me today, 'though the consequences are more awkward as an adult.)
Anyways, as much as I love lego, my heart will always burn for Meccano - as a very young girl I was gifted the Meccano sets that had belonged to my father when he was a boy 50 years earlier. If I ever have childeren they'll be getting their hands on it too.
Ach! All those little wrenches and nuts and bolts and do-it-yourself engine components - heaven
I hope you get your basement *cough* Underground Lego Lair *cough* room soon Rlbell!
