evil Santa
Work on the house begins tomorrow. It makes me feel nervous. I feel like I'm hosting a dinner party or something. I must have the house clean (I must have the space cleared of everything). The food should be well thought out in advance (Scheduling needs to be done carefully). I need to be prepared for contingencies (I need to be able to leave the house for 24 hours at a day's notice). I've been preparing for weeks (I've been preparing for weeks).
It's a very strange feeling being excited about having the house fixed up and anxious that something's going to go wrong. It's like waiting for Christmas and hoping that this Santa will leave presents instead of taking them.
Just for future reference, if the house falls down, we got the bad Santa.
