Stupid Landlord

My landlord keeps calling me from different numbers and expects me to pick up. I guess he has had too much experience in people avoiding his calls lol. Today is the 1st and I have to pay him, but I cannot unless my salary gets deposited. 

I really want to explain to him that I have a life, I do things in my time, and I am not sitting around waiting for him to call. Also, that I do not take calls from unknown numbers. Also, I don't take calls, period. At least 90 per cent of calls are not good for you, they are usually people who want something, that will be of no benefit to you. 

Spent a lot of time yesterday writing a detailed copy on Hubble Tension. The budget today morning was a bit of a bummer as there were no points on space, and very little on science. And it got over quickly, the whole newsroom was so prepared. It was eerie to walk through an office where everyone is watching the budget. The different video feeds were slightly off, some were using headphones, but many were not. IDK how people can function in an environment with so much noise pollution. 

When to the Taste Of Madras to consume two small puny vadas without sambar, which was my lunch, dinner and breakfast for today. Had idli-vada yesterday at this place called Raju Vaishnav Dhabha, that is right opposite the Iskon Temple in Delhi. This place gets as crowded as Carnatic Cafe or Juggernaut during the weekends, and the food is twice as good, priced at less than half. At least their chutney is gattier than the other two. 

Done with my work, and have about an hour and a half to kill. Will prolly go write something for Starbullet.in. 

I have also stuck a nice fake 500 Rs note on my desk. I have seen removal marks, so at least two people have tried to take it, discovered that it is fake, and have pinned it back lol.
