Driving the MICU

I got to Medic 6 last night, clocked in and did my rig check. I then got on the computer to do a few things. I was on the computer when around 22:30 hours the tones dropped for seizures at the Girl Scout Camp in Jefferson Township. I asked the EMT if she knew where she was going and she said no. I told her to get in the back of the unit and I would drive as I knew where I was going. I got in and Tim got in the passenger's seat and off we went. We got there and got the girl loaded up and then I drove down to Harrisburg Hospital. After we got what we needed, we headed on back. We got back around 01:00 hours and I got on the computer to check a few more things. I then went out to the day room and had just sat down around 01:19 hours, when over the scanner I heard County Fire dispatch Box 216-1 to 6 Cesena Drive, for an outside fire. As most you of probally already know, I was a little upset about missing another fire call while I was up at 6, but when I talked to Bubba and my father, I found out that I did not miss much. I then drifited off around 01:45 hours and slept off and on until after I went to the bathroom around 03:30 hours, then I slept good until I woke up at 07:00 hours. I layed on the chair for a little bit and then Carl came in around 07:30 hours. I then got up and put my pillow away and got my boots back on and then grabbed my coffee cakes and chocolate milk and ate breakfast and then checked a few things on the computer. Jim then came in and then Wendy and Steve. We left for Wal-Mart around 09:00 hours since Jim was getting hungry. Me and Carl had just pulled into Wal-Mart when Jim got hit to go to Millersburg on a call. We decided to ditch Wal-Mart and went to Koppy's and Carl got something for breakfast and I got a small pizza, a bag of chips and a bottle of Gatorade for lunch later on. We then headed back to the station. I then talked to Steve about my times for this month and I am do a lot of fill in of open shifts that were on the schedule. After I was done with Steve, Jim came back and was there for a little bit and then got hit to go to Northumberland County for chest pains. Him and Dalmatia ended up flying the person out and then he came back. While he was gone, me and Carl helped Steve sort some paperwork and then got back on the computer and were playing games online. I then ate lunch around 13:00 hours and after I was done, Jim had me and Carl clean the stove up. While Carl was washing the burner trays, I decided to vaccum the carpet and sweep the tile floor. We then went out to the bay and swept the bays. We then went back into the computer room to continue our games, when the tones dropped for a fall victim at Wal-Mart, class 3. Me and Carl took this call and we got there and got the lady loaded up and took her down to Harrisburg Hospital. After we got what we needed, we headed on back. While we were coming off the mountain, 13 got hit for a nose bleed ay the Red Rose Motel, there now infamous nose bleed lady. Me and Carl started cracking up and I called Scott and ribbed him about having to go there again to help lift. We had just gone through Fisherville when Steve called Carl and told us to go help 13. So we turned on to Tourist Park Road and started heading that way. About 2 minutes later, Steve called back and told us never mind since it was just a nose bleed. Carl decided to contine in anyway incase they did need help with lifting, We got there and Scott and Alf came over and said that she was refusing and did not need us for lifting help. We talked to Scott for a little bit and then headed back to the station. We got back and Steve and Wendy were gone for the day. We found out that Jim was gone also. We called up to Lykens to see if they knew what happened to Jim and Tommy told us that he was not feeling well and went home. I then sat down and did my chart for the fall victim while Carl changed the O2 tank in 6-3. We then went up to Jo-Jo's and got something to eat for dinner. I had a Ham and Cheese sub with a side order of fries and a Sprite. We then headed back to the station and got back on the computer and played games online. Tim them came in for the night shift and then Audrey came in. Me and Carl clocked out and then we both headed on home. I ran up to Wal-Mart and bought a new pair of work boots as the ones I had were starting to look pretty bad. I then headed on home. I swung by the fire house to look at the run sheet from this morning and then headed on home. Once at home I took a shower and just finished eating a light snack. 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.
