Clean those bugs

Went to bed last night around 02:00 hours and woken up around 08:30 hours when the phone rang. I layed in bed and I fell back to sleep. Then at 09:15 hours the pager went off for a resenditial structure fire in Halifax Township. I got out of bed and started getting dressed. About a minute later as I was getting dressed, I heard the house sirne going off. I took my medication and my mother gave me one of her prescriptions to drop off and I got in my car and headed into the "Barn". When I passed the hose house, the tanker was just pulling out. I went by Dohn's house and he was just getting ready to leave. I hit about 75 as I went by Dohn's house. I got into the shed and Bill was already there amd he had the bay door open with 13-2 running and was sitting in the passenger's seat. I got out and yelled to him if he had gotten any water. He said no, and he got out and headed to the kicthen, and I threw my stuff in the front and then grabbed the portable radio from the uint and went into the kitchen and started getting water and sport's drinks and put them in the back of the unit. I then stepped outside to see if Dohn was here yet and I saw him turning in and I put us responding and placed Medic 6 in service. I then went back into the kitchen and started feilling two Igloo's up with ice and then I filled one with water, while Bill filled the other and then Dohn came in and grabbed cups and we threw all of that stuff in the back of the unit and we took off. We got there just as they were placing the box in service. So rehab was not needed (grumble). We stayed for about 15 minutes until I talked to Thomas and he said that we could go. Turns out that a plastic spactual that was in the dishwasher had falled onto the heating elament of the dishwasher and had melted and that was what was making the dishwahser smoke. After that we headed on back. We stopped at Shell and got disiel and then headed on back to the shed. I logged my time in and then did my paper work on the fire, and then headed to Rite Aid to drop off my mother's prescription and then headed on home. Once at home I made lunch and watched tv and read the paper. I went back into town around 12:15 hours. I went to Rite Aid and picked up my mother's medication and then headed back to the shed. I got there and got things together to start cleaning the outside compartments. I started and Bill pulled up and then he helped me and then Dohn showed up with 13-2 and then Carol showed up. Dohn and Carol worked on trying to buff some of the scratches out while me and Bill worked on the compartments. Around 14:30 hours the pager went off for breathing problems in Halifax Township. Me, Dohn and Bill dropped what we were doing and got in 13-2 and took off. We got there and got the guy loaded up and took him on down to Harrisburg Hospital. Once again Tindell with Medic 6 got out of going on a call. After we got what we needed down at the hospital, we headed on home. Once back at the shed, I logged my time in and then Dohn finished up part of the the front of the box on 13-1, cleaning off the bugs. I then left for home. Once at home I had dinner and watched "That 70's Show" and the news. Then me and my father headed into the shed to pick up 13-2 and bring it out to the house. Once at home we parked the unit and then went inside. I am getting ready to hit the old email and suf the net. I will be on late tonight, so if any sexy ladies want to talk to me, just give me a buzz.
