turning point

so today i did some stuff i needed to do and called some people that needed calling. i even cleaned up my room a bit and vaccumed it.

yesterday i threw out all my old uni stuff. it was very freeing.

my floor is now almost 100% empty. it's amazing.

as i finished cleaning just then a song i haven't listened to in a VERY long time. bought back lots of memories. these guys wrote a lot of very bad tunes, but there were a few really quote good ones in amongst them all which very much made up for it. this one sounds very appropriate for how i've been feeling of late. forget the verses, it's the chorus thats important:

The O.C. Supertones - Jury Duty

v1
5 am on tuesday
Why am I up so early
Drive out to santa ana 'cause I've got jury duty
No breakfast short tempered
And I cut my head shaving
Ten miles out I hit traffic
Some days just aren't worth saving

You know I haven't had the best of days
But I want to stop and thank you anyway

v2
At the courthouse I waited
And waited then I waited
At lunchtime my car stalled out
I couldn't get it started
Had a book by c.s. lewis
I finished the last page and
Slept on my desk for three hours
Just like my high school days

You know I haven't had the best of days
But I want to stop and thank you anyway

chorus
Cause every single moment whether sleeping or awake
Is your creation
And what you've made is good
I don't always thank you for the rough days and
The hard times in my life
Even though I should


v3
Got home and decided I'd be in a bad mood
My shy and quiet wife said she didn't like my attitude
Got a call from my mother
Forgot my sister's birthday
I'm a lousy older brother safe to say I've had a bad day

You know I haven't had the best of days
But I want to stop and thank you anyway

chorus
Cause every single moment whether sleeping or awake
Is your creation
And what you've made is good
I don't always thank you for the rough days and
The hard times in my life
Even though I should
