What am I supposed to to about it now?

Hi!

I am currently listening to Jennifer Knapp. Her lyrics are incredible. To think she writes things like this herself!! Ironically, the song 'Fall Down' just finished... and some of the words describe, perfectly, how I have recently been feeling about a certain situation in my life. It's crazy how sometimes the lyrics to a song can capture your heart better than the words of your own mouth. I guess it just goes to show us all that we're not that different. I mean, Jennifer Knapp has felt the same things I have felt... which probably means that, at some point, J-LO has felt the same kind of anger or Julia Roberts has experienced the same kind of heartache. It kinda makes life a level playing field, ya know?? Granted, they get paid a crap load more to play the game, but at least the field is even!

I'm kinda tired tonight, which is shocking due to the fact that I woke up at 11:00 and then lounged around for 3 hours watching Dawsons Creek, Saved by the Bell and talking to Kate on the phone. I did spend some time in the office though, getting a head start on next months paperwork. I'd have to say that paperwork might be the worst part of the real world. It's soooo monotonous! (If you were wondering, as I'm sure you were, I won the 6th grade spelling bee with the word monotonous!) I serve 37 clients total, and each client has a monthly and an IHP due at the end of the month. That's 74 different forms I have to fill out each month. PLUS, the IHP's have to be printed out 3 times and given to 3 different people. That's 148 pieces of paper I have deal with every 30 or so days. Ha! When I put it that way, I'm kinda surprised I haven't lost anything yet :) So, all this talk about my job leads me to think that some of you may want to see the website of the facility where I spend most of my time. Keep in mind this is a Non-Profit place so it's not exactly the nicest website I've ever seen... but it'll do ;) www.newavenues.net

Hmmm... what else to talk about.... My dad's Bday is coming up here in a few days. Five to be exact. He's gonna be the big 50!! :-) I'm not too sure what to get him, but I'm sure I'll find something. Any ideas??? Send them my way if you have a good one.

Ok, I think I'm gonna retire for the evening. My plan is to get up at 9 to work out tomorrow, but we'll see if that happens. I'm doing fairly well with motivation these days... I just gotta keep it up! :) The TV in the exercise room doesn't work too well. I'll just plug in a CD player in there or something. Who knows!? :)

I hope you all had a great Tuesday.

Here's to tomorrow,
Tempa

Past regrets and long laments, they find me somehow!
What am I supposed to do about it now?
Oh, what am I to do but fall down?"
