My Daily Thoughts
Thursday, November 30, 2006
Went to bed Tuesday night around 02:00 hours and got up at 11:00 hours. I got out of bed and got dressed and then read the paper. After that I then ate lunch while I got on the computer to do some things. Sue then got ahold of me on AIM and told me to go to my myspace, as Amanda had a job to offer me. So I checked it out. She is offering me a job to work as a detailer with her down at the body shop she works at in New Cumberland. I asked her some general questions and she gave me some info. I told her I would think about it and get back to her. I then ate dinner and then headed up to the fire house for bingo. Bingo went good. Bubba was working, so he wasn't there. I left up there around 21:20 hours and headed on home. Once at home I got on the PS2 and played some Grand Theft Auto and then watched Mythbusters on TV. I also sent Amanda another message, asking her for some more information on the job. I went to bed around 02:00 hours and tossed and turned and fell asleep around 04:00 hours. I got up at 12:30 hours. I got out of bed and read the paper and then ate a pack of crackers. I checked my myspace and Amanda had sent me a reply. I am going down on Monday to talk to her manager about the job. After that I did some things online. I then ate dinner while I watched MASH. I then took a shower and helped my mother with a few things outside. I am now getting ready to hit the old email and surf the net. I will be on late tonight so if any sexy ladies want to talk to me, just give me a buzz.

File Cabinet
Went to bed last night around 02:30 hours and got up this morning around 08:13 hours. I got out of bed and changed into street clothes. I then ate a small breakfast and read the paper. Me and my mother then got in her car and we headed on down to the lower part of the county to do some shopping. We first stopped at the Colonial Park Mall. I went to VS and got three gift cards. From there we went to Costco's and picked up three cases of water, and some other things. From there, we then went to Big Lots and picked up a few things. We then went to the Dollar Tree, Gabrial Brother's the bank and then finally to Staples. While I went into staples, my mother went to Giant and got a few things. I found a 4 drawer file cabinet that I bought for $119.00. I also got 5 boxes of hanging file folders. My total was an amazing $158.93 for everything. We got the file cabinet loaded up into the back of my mother's van and then we headed on home. Once at home, my father, who was home sick today, helped me bring the file cabinet in the house and into my room. Once I finished helping my mother unload the rest of the car, I set to work moving the stuff out of the corner beside my computer. I then placed the file cabinet in the corner at an angle. I then started the 6 hour task of filing all of my research, personal stuff, and training materials and info. After all is said and done, I think I made a great investment. I took a short break to eat dinner, and then I was right back to it. After I was all done, I took a nice realxing shower and then ate a piece of pumpkin pie. I am now getting ready to hit the old email and surf the net. I will be on late tonight so if any sexy ladies want to talk to me, just give me a buzz.

Went to bed last night around 03:00 hours and got up this morning around 10:30 hours. I got out of bed and read the paper and watched a little tv. I then ate lunch and then changed into street clothes. We then loaded my car up with some stuff to take to the recycling bins. My mother and me then headed into town. We first stopped at the recycling bins and dropped off plastic bottles, tin cans, junk mail, and cardboard. We then went to Community Banks and had change that we had in a pretzel jar counted and deposited in our accounts. We then went over to Shell and took my car through the automatic car wash. We then ran down to Giant and picked up a few things. We then headed down to the Post Office and we each got two books of stamps. I then swung by the "Barn" as Bill was there. We went inside the office and I gave him that disk and logged my time in. We then talked a little bit and then I helped Bill take the sign down out front. We then headed on home. Once at home I helped my mother hang large ornaments on our Red Maple Tree out front. I then went inside and cleaned out the corner beside my computer again. I then swept the floor and stacked the stuff back in the corner for now. I then got on the computer and played a little Battleship while I ate dinner. After I was done, I headed up to the fire house for training tonight. Training was good tonight. We had Andy's father come in along with a friend of his and go over ham radio operators and what they do and how they can help the fire service in a disaster. We then went over radio proceedures for when we go responding and arriving on the scene. After that Andy showed Bubba the christmas party video and I went outside while they looked at it. I then came back inside and got some pictures of the old apparatus for andy to use in the slide show. I then went down to the fire house where Bubba, Robbie, Dave and Holly were. I helped them move old 1-1/2" hose on the hose rack around, so we could put the new hose on the rack to get it out of the way. After that I talked a little bit more and then I headed on home. Once at home I took a shower and am now getting ready to hit the old email and surf the net. I will be on late tonight so if any sexy ladies want to talk to me, just give me a buzz.

Then me and my father sat down to watch the Penn State game. It was a great game. Too bad for Temple, but they really sucked. Too bad JoePa wasn't at the stadium to see the game first hand. We won 47-0. I made and ate dinner while the game was on. In the middle of the third quarter, around 17:30 hours, the pager went off for a fall victim in Millersburg Borough. I got my boots on and got in my car and headed into the "Barn". I got in there and pulled in behind Kim and we both got in 13-1 and off we went. It ended up being a public assist. We went available and headed back to the shed. Once back at the shed, I logged my time in and then headed on home. Once at home I finished watching the rest of the game. We then sat and watched a western movie. Around 19:05 hours, the pager went off for a sick person in Halifax Borough. I got my boots on and got in my car again and headed back into the shed. I had just turned onto Armstrong Valley Road, when we were cancelled. So I turned around and went back home. Once back at home, I sat down to continue watching the movie. Then around 21:22 hours, the pager went off for a fall victim in Halifax Township. I got my boots on once again and got back in my car and headed back into the shed. I got in there and got in 13-1 and then Carol showed up and off we went. We got there and Amanda, Alf, Kim, Matt, Matt, and his wife were there, along with Dohn. The guy had a compound fracture of his left ankle. After we got him loaded up, we took him down to Harrisburg Hospital. After we got what we needed, we headed on back. We dropped Tony off at Sheetz and then headed back to the shed. Once back at the shed, I logged my time in and then did my paperwork from the call. I then headed on home. Once at home I ate a snack and am getting ready to hit the sack as I am really tired.

A rematch against Millersburg
Went to bed lase night around 03:00 hours and was rocked out of bed this morning around 11:04 hours when the pager went off for a psychaitric problem in Halifax Township. I got out of bed and got dressed and then got in my car and headed into the "Barn". I got in there and Dohn already had 13-1 pulled out. I parked my car and got in and off we went. We got there and got the kid loaded up and took him down to Herhsey Medical Center. After we got what we needed down there, we headed on back. While we were coming back, Steve Boyer from Medic 6 called me and asked if he could bring a check down for Dohn to sign, which I said was ok. Once back at the shed, I logged my time in and then did my paperwork from the call. Steve then showed up and he asked me if I could follow him down to the post office to help him carry some mail trays in that had Medic 6's subscriptions in them. I told him that I could do that and then I headed on down to the Post Office. After I was done there, I headed back to the shed to finish up my paperwork. I then headed towards home. I swung by the fire house when I saw that the Engine was sitting out. LeeAnn and Katine were cutting potatoes when I pulled in. I sat and talked with them and then Jess came up and we talked some. I left there around 15:50 hours and headed on home. Once at home I changed clothes and grabbed what I need for the county executive board meeting, and then headed back up to the fire house. I then helped them cut potatoes. After we were done, I helped them move tables around in the fire hall. I then left there around 18:20 hours to head down county. I stopped at McDonald's and grabbed a milk shake and then headed on down to Lower Swatara's Station. I got down there and talked with the guys before the meeting started. The meeting went good. We tossed around some ideas. We then had food afterwards and we talked some more. I left there around 20:30 hours and headed on home. I stopped at Sheetz and got gas and then headed on home. Once at home I took a shower and then read the paper. I just finished eating a light snack and am going to once again crash in bed as I am really tired.

GET WELL SOON SUE!!!
Went to bed last night around 02:00 hours and got up this morning at 10:00 hours. I got out of bed and changed into street clothes and then read the paper. Sue called me around 11:00 hours and asked me if I wanted to cover for her tonight, since she was still not feeling the greatest. I told her that I really wanted to, but I already had plans for tonight to play cards. She told me that it was ok, and that she hoped that I had fun. I then ate lunch and watched an episode of Season Two of Emergency. After I was done with that, I got a few games together, my controller and memory card, and then left the house to head up to Millersburg. I stopped at the fire house and picked up my gear and then headed up to the Casey's house. When I got up there both Keith and Michelle were there. Michelle was getting ready to head back to work. Me and Keith played a game of college football. Sue then called me and asked me if I would go on for her at 02:00 hours, which I said that I could. I also told her that I could stay on until 16:00 hours today for her. I won the game when Keith forfeited in the fourth quarter. We then took a break and sat down to play Test Drive, Eve of Destruction. Michelle then came home and we ordered out for dinner. Me and Keith then went down and picked the subs and pizza up and brought them home. We ate dinner and then Michelle left to go to her Aunt's house. So the three of us played Uno Attack. After that we played Texas Hold 'Em. Michelle then came home and we set up to play another round of Texas Hold 'Em. House went out first and then I went out. So while Michelle and Bill played it out, me and Keith got back on the PS2. I left up there around 00:32 hours and headed on home. I stopped at the fire house and dropped my gear off and then headed on home. Once at home I took the trash out and then took a shower. I am getting ready to crash in bed as I am really tired.

New Jersey State Firemen's Convention next year, I think I might go
Went to bed last night around 02:00 hours and was rocked out of bed this morning around 08:39 hours when the pager went off for breathing problems in Halifax Township. I got out of bed and got dressed and then got in my car and headed into the "Barn". I got in there and Carol pulled in behind me. We both got in 13-1 and off we went. We got there and got the guy loaded up. Medic 6 released to BLS and we took the guy down to Community General Osteo Hospital. After we got what we needed down there, we headed on back. Once back at the shed, I logged my time in and then did the paperwork from the call. Bill and Dohn handeled a call for an unconscious person in Halifax Township, while we were on our way down to the hospital. I then headed on home. Once at home I grabbed the money to go into my savings account up here at Community Banks and then headed into the bank to deposit that money and to cash my check. After I was done at the bank, I ran over to Sheetz and got gas and then headed on home. Once at home I read the paper. I then ate lunch while I got on the computer to do some things. I then left the house around 17:35 hours and headed up to the fire house to help with bingo tonight. I got up there and put the disk of pictures on the desk in the fire station and then went up to the hall. A few people were already there when I got there. I went into the kitchen and found that we forgot to put the buckets under the sections of the roof that leak, so there was water all over the floor. I mopped that up and then I started selling tickets. Robin and Jess then showed up. Bingo went good, there was a good amount of people there. After everyone left, we had a little fun. Today was Lonny's birthday, so Jess brought up 4 of those test tube drinks for Lonny. Jess put hers down the front of her pants and made Lonny drink it that way. We then sat around and talked about different things, and one of them was the New Jersey State Convention that they went to this year. I really think that I am going to make the trip down with them next year so I can have some fun and relax. We all then left and went out different ways. I am getting ready to go watch Mythbusters and then am going to hit the sack.

Quiet Day
Went to bed last night around 02:00 hours and got up this morning around 10:00 hours. I got out of bed and got dressed and then ran up to the township building to vote. That took all of 2 minutes and then I headed on home. Once at home I read the paper. I then ate lunch and got on the computer to do some things. I went over to Bill's house around 15:40 hours to pick up a CD of pictures that he had burned for me. I then talked to him for a little bit and then headed on home. It was a quiet day today with no calls. it is unknown what the night will bring. Once at home I ate dinner while I was on the computer. I just finished taking a shower and am now getting ready to hit the old email and surf the net. I will be on late tonight so if any sexy ladies want to talk to me, just give me a buzz.
Thank you to all who bought fruit
Went to bed last night around 02:00 hours and got up this morning around 10:30 hours. I got out of bed and got changed into street clothes. I then read the paper. I then ate lunch while I got on the computer to do some things. Around 14:30 hours, the fire pager went off to assist Company 29 on a vehicle fire in Halifax Borough. I already had my shoes and hat on (heard them dispatch 29 for the call). So I grabbed my keys and jumped in my car and headed up to the fire house. I got up there and slid to a stop and ran inside the fire house. Adam was right behind me. We both got out gear on and I put my jacket and helmet in the Engine. I then opened the bay door and we waited for someone to show up to drive. Dave and Jason showed up and they got in the Engine and we went responding. All we did was go around the block, as the box was held to Company 29 and we were placed in service. Once back at the fire house, Dave filled the report out and then I headed on home. Once at home I got back on the computer. I ate dinner while I was on the computer. I left around 18:00 hours and headed up to the fire house. I then got ahold of Sue, and she thought I was coming into training, so she had my fruit papers in there. I told her to leave them in the truck and I was on my way in to get them. Once at 29's station, I grabbed the papers out of her truck, left her a note and then headed back to our fire house. Once there, I went into the hall and crunched numbers. Sue then texted me with her orders and then I handed my papers in. Alltogether, I sold $780.00 worth of fruit. After the meeting was over, I headed down to the fire house and talked with Bubba, LeeAnn, Andy, Dave, Robbie and Holly. I left up there around 21:30 hours and headed on home. Once at home I took a shower and am now getting ready to hit the old email and surf the net. I will be on late tonight so if any sexy ladies want to talk to me, just give me a buzz.

Another Loss
I laid down in bed around 00:45 hours last night, and I fell asleep. I woke up around 02:20 hours when I heard the fire pager talking, because I forgot to close it when I laid down in bed. I closed the fire pager and closed the internet down, and then craweled back in bed and went back to sleep. I got up this morning around 11:00 hours. I got out of bed and got dressed and then got in my car and headed into town. I went to Tab's and picked up the fruit paper I left in there last week. I talked to her for a little bit and then I headed on home. Once at home I read the paper. I then made lunch and sat down and watched the Penn State Game. We did not perform well on the field. We ended up losing to Wisconsion, 13-3. Joe's left knee got hit by the helmet of a Wisconsion player at the start of the third quarter, and was eventually taken off the field and back to the locker room to have it looked at. Here is hoping that JoePa is doing good. After the game was over, I got on the computer to do somethings. I am hoping to hear from Sue tonight about the fruit papers from her. I am getting ready to eat dinner now. I am also getting ready to hit the old email and surf the net. I will be on alte tonight so if any sexy ladies want to talk to me, just give me a buzz.
The Days Keep Getting Busier
Went to bed last night around 02:00 hours, and was rocked out of bed around 06:47 hours when the pager went off for an overdose in Halifax Borough. I got out of bed and got dressed and then got in my car and headed into the "Barn". I got there and pulled in and parked and then went inside and got in 13-1. Dohn then showed up and he got in and off we went. We picked up Sue at the Post Office. She was coming along, because she thought she knew who the patient was. It turned out not to be who she thought it was, but she still decided to go down anyway, as an extra set of hands. We got the guy loaded up and took him down to Harrisburg Hospital. After we got what we needed, we headed on back. We dropped the medic off at sheetz and then dropped Sue off at her car. We then went back to the shed. Once there, I logged my time in and then sat down to do the paperwork from the call. I started doing my narrative, when the pager went off for breathing problems at SLV in Upper Paxton Township. Dohn picked me up at the station and we headed up there. After we got the lady loaded, we took her down to Harrisburg Hospital. While I was down there, I finally met Matt, Sue's friend. We talked for a little bit and then after we got what we needed, we headed on back. While we were down there, we got hit for a CVA in Upper Paxton Township at SLV. Bill and Carol took that call. We dropped the medic off at his squad and then went back to the station. Once there, I logged my time in and then finished the paperwork from my first call, and then did the paperwork from this call. After I was done, I headed on home. Once at home I sat down to read the paper. I got to read the front two sections, when around 13:30 horus, the pager went off for chest pains in Millersburg Borough at the Diaylsis Center. I got in my car and headed to Dohn's house. I got there and got in 13-1 and off we went. After we got that lady loaded, we took her down to Harrisburg Hospital. This time I got to talk to Steph. After we got what we needed, we headed on back. We dropped the medic off at his squad again and then headed back to Dohn's house. Once there, I picked up my car and headed back into the shed. Bill was there when I got there. I logged my time in and then did the paperwork from the call. Me and Bill then talked for a little bit and then we both headed on home. Once at home I took a shower and then ate dinner while I watched some TV. I am now getting ready to hit the old email and surf the net.

Busy Past Two Days
Oh boy, where do I start. I went to bed Tuesday night around 01:30 hours and was rocked out of bed at 05:43 hours when the pager went off for a headache in Halifax Township. I got out of bed and got dressed and then got in my car and headed into the "Barn". I got in there and Sue was just pulling in. I parked my car and her and me got in 13-2 and off we went. We got out to the scene and we cancelled Medic 6 and then got the guy loaded up and took him down to Holy Spirit Hospital. After we got what we needed, we headed on back. While we were heading back. Sue missed the off ramp for Lewistown, so we got off at Progress Avenue and went down to Lingesltown Road, and then got on 322 from there. We stopped at Shell and got fuel and then went back to the shed. We talked the whole way home and then talked a little more at the shed, and then she left and headed on home. I then headed on home. Once at home I sat down and read the paper and ate breakfast. It was short lived as the pager went off for a CVA in Halifax Township. I got back in my car and headed back into the shed. I went the back was since they were doing construction, so I got to the shed before Carol did. We got in 13-2 and off we went. We got to the scene and got the lady loaded up and took her down to Harrisburg Hospital. After we got what we needed, we head on back. We dropped Jim off at his squad and then went back to the shed. Once there, I logged my time in and then headed on home. Once at home I finished reading the paper and then got on the computer to do some things. I went to the kitchen around 12:50 hours to get something for lunch. I just got a glass out and put ice in it, when the pager went off for an unconscious person in Halifax Township. I got in my car and headed back into the station. I got there and got in 13-2 and off we went. We got there and called county and had them dispatch 29 for lift assist. We ended up taking the guy out through the bedroom window. After we got the guy loaded up we headed on down to Harrisburg Hospital. After we got what we needed down there, we headed on back. While on the way back, we got hit for breathing problems at SLV. Dohn and Bill took that call, and we ran Jim up to the scene. He released to BLS, so we ran him back down to his squad. After we dropped him off, we headed back to the shed. We had just backed up and I had just gotten out of the unit, when the pager went off for a fall victim in Millersburg Borough at Polk Assisted Living. We got back in 13-2 and off we went. We got up there and got the lady loaded and took her down to Community General Osteo Hospital. After we got what we needed, we headed on back. Once back at the shed, I logged my time in and Bill got my times for me. I then ran up to McDonald's and got something to eat for dinner. I then headed back to the shed and did my 4 tripsheets. After I was done with them, I headed on home. I stopped at the fire station to see if they were done with bingo yet. They were. They had just finished when I walked in the hall. So I helped them clean up and then me, Bubba, Robbie and LeeAnn went down to the fire station and Bubba showed us some apparatus on the computer. Then we stood around and talked. I left there around 23:30 hours and headed on home. Once at home I ate a snack and then watched Mythbusters. I went to bed at 02:00 hours.
I got up this morning around 09:56 hours and went out and got a drink and sat down to watch the end of a show. I then went back to bed to try and get a little more sleep. I had just gotten comfortable, when the pager went off for diabetic problems in Millersburg Borough at the Health Center. I got out of bed and got dressed and then got in my car and headed into the "Barn" I got in there and 13-1 was gone, but we had been placed in service as 20 got out. So I headed on home. Once at home I started reading the paper. Around 11:55 hours the pager went off for breathing problems in Millersburg Borough at Polk Assisted Living. I got back in my car and headed for Dohn's house. I got there and parked and got in 13-1 and off we went. We got up there and got the lady loaded up and took her up to Pottsville General. After we got what we needed up there, we swung by KFC and I grabbed something to eat for lunch and then we headed on back. We dropped Jim off at his squad and then headed back to Dohn's house. Once there, I picked my car up and headed back into the shed. Once there, I logged my time in and then did my paperwork from the call. While I was doing my tripsheet, the pager went off for a fall victim in Millersburg Borough at the Polk Apartmetns. Dohn and Bill took that call as I went off at 15:00 hours. After I finished, I headed on home. Once at home I finished reading the paper and then changed into street clothes. I then took some trash out and grabbed a soda, when the fire pager went off for a tree down. I got in my car and headed up to the fire station. I got there and Robbie, Lyle and Jamie were all there. I asked Robbie if he wanted me to take the Utility, and he told me he didn't care. So I told him that someone would have to moce the Engine so I could get the Utility out. Lyle moved the Engine out and I went responding. I got on scene and we cut up the tree, moved it off the road and then swept the road off. We all then headed back to the fire station. I put the Utility away and then Robbie had Jamie put the Engine back in. I then ran back home, grabbed my stuff for EMA training, along with a pack of crackers and my soda and then headed on down to county for training tonight. Training was good and I left there around 21:15 hours and headed on home. I stopped at Sheetz and got gas and then headed on home. Once at home, I took a shower and am now getting ready to hit the old email and surf the net. I will be on late tonight so if any sexy ladies want to talk to me, just give me a buzz.

Happy Halloween
Went to bed last night around 01:30 hours as I was tired. I got up this morning around 09:00 hours when my mother asked me to move my car so she could head to her doctor's appointment on the west shore. I moved my car and then came back inside and tried to go back to sleep, but I was wide awake. So I got out of bed and changed into street clothes. I then read the paper and watched some TV. I then made and ate lunch while I sat down and watched another episode of Season 2 of Emergency. My mother then came home around 12:30 hours. She told me that she is getting her operation on December 4th. I then got on the PS2 and played a game of college football. I then took a 15 minutes break, and then got back on to play another game of college football. I ate dinner while I played the second game. The second game I played, was for the 2005 National Championship and it was the Rose Bowl. I played Miami. I won 65-58. It was a hard fought game, and at times very nerve racking for me. I then went to the off-season, and did recruiting for the 2006 season. I then got off around 20:30 hours. I just finished eating a snack and am now getting ready to hit the old email and surf the net. I will be on late tonight so if any sexy ladies want to talk to me, just give me a buzz.
