Good Lord, I didn't think the end of this week would ever come.
I - along with the rest of the CPE interns - had IPR group this morning. IPR stands for interpersonal reflection, which apparently is supposed to be a time where we deal with the issues that we have with one another. The only problem (if you consider this a problem, I'm not sure that I do) is that we've only known each other for four weeks and so far we all get along really well. There are no real problems to hash out. So this morning I took it upon myself to complain about the fact that they keep pushing back the opening of the dolphin exhibit at the Georgia Aquarium.
I think it's safe to say that your group is solid when they only thing you can find to complain about is a dolphin exhibit.
Anyway, we have these group meetings off site, didn't so we get to the hospital until almost 1:00. We ate lunch together and then I was able to get a couple of visits in before I left for the day. I'm starting to feel a little bit more comfortable in my role, which is kind of a relief! When I started four weeks ago, there really were points when I was regretting my decision to accept such a difficult placement. I'm starting to feel a little bit better about it now (but still find myself taking deep breaths a LOT, ha!).
On my way home I called Bruce and asked if he wanted to go to Barnes and Noble with me tonight. Tori Spelling's new book, Uncharted TerriTori, just came out and ... well ... I had to buy it. I can't help it. Books like this are my vice. And I love Tori Spelling. Please don't judge me.
Bruce agreed and we ended up having a really fun time. I found my book pretty quickly, but we actually wandered around for about an hour and a half. Bruce is on a yoga kick right now (I think that deserves it's own post), so at one point, we settled ourselves into the fitness / diet / lifestyle section to find a good book on yoga. We've got some DVDs, but we'd love to build our own workouts and want to read up on it a little bit more. I hopped over to Starbucks while Bruce paged through the books to grab a treat ...
Nothing like eating world's largest cookie while surrounded by on how to get into shape!
I know I should go to sleep as soon as I hit "publish" on this thing, but I really want to start reading! Maybe just the first chapter ... ? :)
