Dual Sirens

Went to bed last night around 02:00 hours and did not get up again until 11:30 hours this morning. Got changed into my uniform and read the paper. Got on the nintendo and ate lunch while I played. Watched a little tv at 14:00 hours, then got back on the nintendo. I was thinking about taking a shower, when the pager went off for a traumatic injury in Reed Township. Got un my car and headed on ou to Dohn and Carol's house since they had the unit there. Got there before Bill did, and got in the unit and went respending. Got on the scene and the guy was laying on his face in the yard, where he had landed after flipping backwards off of his ATV. Put him on a backboard and got him on the stretcher and headed for Holy Spirit. Bill called into Holy Spirit and they told us to divert to our local trauma cente, which is Hershey. Advised the Pt. of this and away we went to Hershey. When we got there they did a full trauma alert on him, which took all of us totally by surprise. Bill gave the report and we got our equipment from Monday's call and headed on home. Dohn stopped at Shell and got diesel and then we stopped at McDonald's and I got dinner. Dohn took us back out to his house and me and Bill picked up our vehicles, and headed back into the station, with Dohn in 13-1 in tow. Restocked the unit and logged my times in and finished eatting dinner, then headed home. Got home and watched the end of "Lost". Then I washed my hair and had a small snack. Getting ready to hit the email and surf the net. Will be on late again, give a buzz. Halfway through my 60 hour shift.
