Tuesdays are crap. I got up feeling better than normal. I didn't even have my regular morning tantrum about having to go to work instead of sitting in the sunshine. Things went rapidly downhill from there. For one thing I arrived at work which always puts a downer on things. Then I realised I only had the most tedious tasks left to do, having done the more interesting on Monday and late last week.
Then we had a fire drill and on the way back to the 7th floor I got stuck in not one but two lifts. This would never have happened on a Friday...

Being stuck in two lifts for ten minutes apiece my mood blackened to the point where I can only think about the fact that I am now engaged in two of my least favourite activities for the forseable future: house hunting and job hunting.

Reasons to hate job hunting:
- You have to pretend you are still doing your job properly and are devoting your full attention to it
- Your free time is sucked up in long rounds of pointless letter writing and making phonecalls to agents to discover that they have advertised the post really very badly indeed
- There is honestly nothing out there worth applying for
- Job websites are blindingly obvious on your computer screen to anyone walking past your desk
- Recruitment Agents are by enlarge a shower of bastards that promise one thing and deliver ...er... well whatever suits them really
- You rapidly lose the will to continue breathing
Reasons to hate house hunting:
- You are going to have to move house
- Everything you like has already been taken
- You can't afford the ones you really like
- Estate agents are a shower of bastards, without exception
- There are almost no furnished properties to rent in Oz - we are going to have to buy everything
Other people have absolutely no taste whatsoever and it's difficult not to tell them that when you're in their house
Reasons to hate Tuesday:
- More people kill themselves on a Tuesday than any other day
- There are still three more days to the weekend
- You aren't allowed to winge about it because it isn't Monday
- If you Google "facts about Tuesday" among other things you get a list of links about adult star Tuesday Weld. Crap Tuesday has even cursed my lazy blog posting. I'm going back to bed.
