Life's ironies:

1. Your workpile hits the roof when you've just gotten back from a nice, long vacation. So what's the point in going on one, when you're anyway going to be back to your dreary, disgusted self in a day's time?
2. You have your worst acne breakouts when you've got a : a.) wedding - friend's, or worse still your own (I've just been through this, and therefore it tops my list), b.) very crucial, long-elusive date, c.) job interview - even worse if its on VC - your zit's magnified twenty times over!, d.) meet-the-(already-hate-you) parents lunch lined up- now they have another excuse - 'she's got a very dangerous and extremely contagious skin-disease that could contaminate our whole progeny!', 'hamaare khandaan ki izzat multani mitti mein mil jaayegi!!', e.)
3. Your pickup, which is usually fashionably late, arrives just as you're about to hit your creative climax - which is now. Ciao! Shall continue...
