WE ARE PENN STATE!!!!
Boy what a nice cap off to a bad day. Went to bed last night around 02:00 hours and got up this morning around 10:45 hours when my mother woke me up. Apparently the day had started out on the wrong foot already. She proceeded to tell me what had happened so far. When she got up this monring and went out to get the paper, she noticed that the right rear tire on her van was flat. So she came inside and woke my father up and he went out and looked at the tire. He then took the tire off and put it in his truck and ran it out to Heim's, where it was found to have a nail in it. A plug was put in the tire and it was brought home and put back on my mother's van. My father then told her that John had said that she was going to need new tires on her van before it got inspected. So then my father came inside and went to wash his hands. My mother said that he came stomping out of the bathroom and turned the faucet on in the kitchen and told he to look. There was no water coming out, the well pump had broke. So my father called Matt Foust and he said that he would be here sometime after 13:00 hours. So he thought it was the switch on the well tank inside so he got a new switch at the hardware store, but it turned out that it was not that. So once I was up, I read the paper. Carol called around 11:00 hours and asked me if I could cover for Dohn, and I said that no I could not as we were having problems with thw well and my mother was going to need help taking both cats up to the vets later on. So as soon as I hung up with her, the pager went off for an unconscious perons in Upper Paxton Township at SLV. Dohn, Carol, and Bill all took the call, but 6 said that they would handle and we were placed in service. Then around 12:15 hours the pager went off for a diabetic problems in Halifax Township. It was our frequent flyer that they had two days ago. Dohn, Carol and Bill took the call and it was a refusal again. Then around 13:00 hours me and my mother took the cats up to the vets and we wrre up there for about 30 minutes at the most. Once at home I got on the PS2 and played Burnout 3, Takedown. Then around 15:45 hours the pager went off for an accident with injuries in Reed Township. Dohn, Carol, and Bill took that one and they took the guy to Hershey Hospital. My father had just sat down to plat Conflict Desert Storm on the PS2, when the pager went off for an unconscious person in Upper Paxton Township. We both got dressed and then got in his truck and headed on into the "Barn". Once in there we got in 13-2 and off we went. We got up there and medic 6 was already there. We spent about 15 to 20 minutes on scene trying to talk the guy into going down to the hospital to get checked out. He finally said yes and we took him down to Hershey Hospital. While we were at the house, the pager went off for abdominal pains in Halifax Township. Ambulance 6-6 handled that call for us. After we got what we needed down at Hershey, we headed on home. While on the way home, we got tapped out for a call in Halifax Township. Dohn, Carol, and Bill took that one and took the person down to Harrisburg Hospital. We dropped the medic off at Sheetz and both me and my father grabbed something to eat and then went back to the shed. Once back at the shed, I logged our times and pulled the times up for the call. I had just put my tripsheet in my folder when the pager went off for abdominal pains in Jackson Township. I had alreday talked to Deb about her being on while I got my hair cut and until 13-1 got back. So she made her way into the shed and my dad pulled 13-2 back out and they went responding. Meanwhile I called my mother and had her come in and pick me up at the shed and then we headed on home. Once at home I ate my sub and chips and then got dressed and headed on into town and got my hair cut. After that was done I headed on home and sat down to watch the Orange Bowl. Boy what a game. I listen to the game on the radio on the way home and I heard us score the touchdown. Once at home, Flordia State score on a 86 yard punt return and then on their followoing possesion scored on a 57 yard pass. But the kicker missed the point after, which made the scoe 13-7, FSU. We then scored a tocuhdown right before the half making it 14-13 us. Then in the third quarter, not much was done, with a lot of punting going on. Then in the fourth quarter, we got a safety, making it 16-13, us. We then made a drive down to the 4 yard line, bnut fumbled the ball off of the snap and FUS recovered. FSU was able to kick a field goal to tie the score. We then tried for a 29 yard field goal, but the kick went wide left. So we went into overtime. FSU had the ball first and tried for a field goal, but it went to the right. We then tried for a field goal, but it went wide left again. So in to double overtime. We scored a touchdown which made it 23-16 us. Then FSU scored tieing it up again at 23-23. So now into Triple Overtime. Boy my heart could not take this any longer. FSU tried for a field goal, but the kick bounced off of the right upright. We then kicked a field goal, making it 26-23. Boy what a nail-bitter of a game. I am getting ready to take a shower and then am going to hit the sack. It has been a long day for us.
