The Ugly
-Having to delegate work to people I cannot pick. (I don't believe in policing, and I trust you as an adult to have something ready for me on the day it's due. How can you tell me you haven't even started?)

The Annoying
--My friends are trying (note emphasis on "trying") to play matchmaker with me as guinea pig 'cause they haven't been to a wedding for some time (yeah, brilliant reason, innit?). Today they narrowed (yes, narrowed) down their search to guys with glasses. I got no problem with that. BUT WHY IS THAT THE ONLY CRITERION?

The Good
---Fresh, ripe, juicy mangoes. Soft, pliable flesh. Juice trickling down your chin when you bite into it...Aamasutra, indeed. (Aam is mango in Hindi).

Blech!

• Sugar-coated strawberry cornflakes. I've been hyper all day. And not good hyper.
• House hunting.
  
• Greasy agents. I had no idea they'd come for their due even if you didn't contract a house through them.
  

• House hunting. It'll be the bestest house ever I tell ya. [yes, sic]
• Laughing till my stomach and face hurt. They still hurt. Thanks, An.
• Inane conversations and money-making rackets with co-workers. E.g. What do vegetarian vampires suck on? How long will it be before Serena drops the cheeslings all over the floor again?
  

Loathes:
Tax planning
Feeling the beginnings of a cold
Tolerating a boring project that will only be over next week
Flea bites and mosquito stings
Not being able to wash my hair because of aforementioned potential cold
Not being able to find my roman sandals

Looking at pictures of Daniel Craig

but I'm trying to get a head start and plan ahead. Ok, here goes:

This Tuesday I will loathe:

• People who do not know what the word "deadline" means
• Polyester
• The watery yogurt they serve at lunchtime
• Bus conductors who don't give me my change

• That the growth on my dad's arm is benign
• Radio Indigo in the midst of chaos
• Lunchtime bitching
• My surprising affinity for tarot cards.
