M: Prep

Short Stop is driving six hours to see me on Friday. I have made a list of things to do before he gets here, including:

  • Wash all the dishes
  • Do all the laundry, including kitchen/bathroom/bedding
  • Unpack the unpacked boxes, or at least hide them
  • Vacuum hairballs
  • Hide the following things: framed picture of self at First Communion (thanks, Mom), romance novels, eczema cream, handmade quilt from home (too difficult to launder), internet history
  • Beer run

I already went to Target to get pizza, chips & salsa, granola bars, and pasta. Boy food? Burning lots of candles in entryway in hopes of eradicating strange entryway smell. Already stocked on all the safe sex things because WHEN DO I EVER NEED THEM? What am I missing? Oh god. This is going to be a disaster.
