I found one aspect of editing that I found hideous--like really hideous. Indexes. Ew. I love pretty much every facet of editing: I love the commas, the vague pronoun challenge, the small caps, the ins and outs of the possessive; but I hate indexes. It's the most tedious thing ever, and I loathe it. Half of our last test was editing an index, and I marked so many things and caught so many mistakes, and yet, I still miss enough to give me a high C for a grade.
It really is hideous.

That does sound hideous, indeed!
Just keep thinking, "One week from today!"
Ooh. That IS hideous!
This looks very hard to do.
that sounds too complicated for me.
but like your mom said in one week you'll be home and who will care about editing an index.
