Dinner with Amanda Again

I left the house last night around 19:20 hours and headed up to Lykens to work. I stopped at Tower Sales and grabbed a pack of two cookies and a small bottle of chocolate milk for a snack and then headed over to the station. John was already there and Jim was still inside. I went inside and clocked in and then Jim told me that Tony was stopping in at 06:30 hours so they could make a MICU up in Lykens. Jim said that I could then either go home, or head on down to Eville. I told him that more then likely I was going to head down to Eville, because by the time I would get home, it would be time for me to turn around again. Jim them left and I sat down to watch some TV and eat my snack. John was working on a tripsheet and when he was done with that, someone called him on his cell phone and he went out into the bay and talked to this person for at least almost 3 hours. He then came back in around 23:50 hours. I then went to bed at 24:00 hours and slept pretty good. It has been awhile since I slept on a couch, especially the ones in Lykens. Tony then got there at 06:35 hours and I packed my stuff up and then got in my car and headed on down to Eville. I got there and parked and went inside and Zach was sleeping on the couch. I ate my breakfast while I got on the computer to check a few things. Carl then showed up, shortly followed by Tony. Me and Carl then did a rig check on 6-7 and then I swept the carpet, while Carl moped the floor in the kitchen. We then left and headed up to Special Place to meet the Lykens crew for breakfast. We got there and went inside and ordered out food when the pagers went off for an ALS call in Halifax Township. Tony left for that call, but ended up getting cancelled. A few minutes after Tony left, the pagers went off again for a ALS call in Upper Paxton Township at SLV. Tindel, Matt, and Jason all got up and left. That left just me and Carl to eat breakfast. After Tony got cancelled, he went back to the station. Tindel ended up going down with 20, so Matt and Jason decided to just go to Subway and grab something to eat. When we got back, Matt said that 6-3 had to go down to West End to get new batteries put in it. When we got back, I tried to start 6-3 with no luck. So I ended up putting in in neutral and Carl pushed the unit down the short hill that the unit was parked on and then I stopped in before it went out into the street. We then moved 6-7 over in front of 6-3 and tried to jump start it with no luck. We ended up having Wendy call down to West End to see if Fred could come up and put the batteries in it. He said that was not a problem and about 10 minutes later he was there. It took him about 20 minutes to change both batteries and then it started like a charm. I then backed 6-3 back beside the building and then me and Carl spent about 1 hour talking to Troy Enders. Troy is the new EMT at the company and I have known him for about 2 years now since I first met him on a call in Millersburg, where he was the patient. We then went inside to watch some TV. I ate lunch and was just finishing up when the pager went off for a sick person in Elizabethville Borough at the Keepler Home. Me and Carl took the call and it turned out ot be a bullshit call, as it was just a routine transport. While we were there, the tones went off again for another ALS call in Halifax Township at the doctor's office. We finally got the guy loaded up and headed on down to Harrisburg. I drove and Carl teched in the back. After we got what we needed, we headed on back. Once back at the station, I clocked out and headed on home. Once I got home and was changing clothes, Amanda sent me a text and asked me if I wanted to meet her at Ruby's Tuesday's for dinner again this week. I said sure that was not a problem. I then read the paper and then got changed into street clothes. I grabbed my books and then got in my car and left the house arounf 16:26 hours and headed on into town. I stopped at Shell and picked up an orange drink and then continued on down to Union Deposit. I got down there and pulled in and for once Amanda was actually waiting for me to get there. We went inside and again sat at the bar. I had two Coors Lights to drink and then a glass of water. I had a cheeseburger with fries. Amanda hazd the salad bar with two Mini Turkey Burgers. She then got something to eat for desert. She also had two glasses of wine with her dinner. She could not eat all of her desert, so she asked me to finish it, which I did. We then left and headed to HACC for class. Class was good tonight and we got out of there around 22:00 hours and I headed on home. I talked to Bubba on the way home and he had ms stop at the fire house and check something for him and then I headed on home. Once at home I took a shower and am soon going to bed as I am tired.
