Helping at the Garage

I went to bed last night at 01:00 hours and got up this morning at 06:50 hours when my alarm went off. I got out of bed and got changed into street clothes and then grabbed a bowl of cereal. I then grabbed my check book and some extra money and then got in my car to head on down to the garage. I decided to go the back way to avoid the school due to the lights being on. So I took Enders Road to Powell's Valley Road, then Price Road to Parmer Drive to the red light. I then went around the mountain. As I was on 322 and just before the Linglestown exit, I saw Amanda's car about 3 cars in front of me in the left lane, so I knew she was obvisouly running late. She got off at the Progress exit and I got off at the Union Deposit exit and came back around and as I pulled in she was just getting out of her car. I parked and she took me in through the garage part as no one had opened up yet. I followed her in and we started talking right away. I stood at the counter and talked to her while she started printing up paper work. I then sat down in the other office chair behind the counter and started reading the paper while we talked. The one mechanic then came in and told me that the gasket around my intake manifold was leaking and that it would need fixed then. We then got talking some more when Bob stuck his head in and asked me if I could help them push a car into one of the bays. I said that was not a problem and went out and helped them push a Jeep into one of the bays. I then moved my car out of the way when they were done with it and went back in. Amanda had then gotten a call from her one uncle who own's the deli in Steelton asking her weather she had finished the chart he asked her to do and she said that she was working on it. She hung up and told me she needed help trying to get the lines on the chart. So I spent about an hour trying to figure this out for her while she also called Alf to see if he could help also. Between myself and Alf we got things squared away for her to start plugging the information in when Sue brought it down to her later on. I then said my goodbyes to her and then left and headed over to Osteo to visit Bubba. I got there and parked and then made my way through the hospital and found his room. When I walked in, Robin and Jaz were there also and Bubba was laying in bed watching TV. I talked with them for 1 hour and then I left to go do the other things I planned on doing while I was down in Harrisburg. From Osteo, I ran down to Kolh's to pick up a gift card for Jeff for her birthday. I then ran back to Best Buy to pick up the game "Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories." I got there and decied to look at TV's since I am thinking about getting a new one for in my room so I can get a DVD player. I then went over to the PS2 games and they were sould out of the game. So I then decided to run over to Target and they were sold out also. So I stopped at the two Game Stop's in the area and they were sold out also. So by this time it was around 12:00 hours, so I stopped at Pizza Hut and had lunch. I then stopped at the Colonial Park Mall and hit the video game store in there and they were also sold out of the game. So I decided to try the Target by Chambers Hill. So I went over there and I finally found it at that Target. I then headed on home. I stopped at Sheetz and got gas and then stopped at Shell to pick up some Easter Eggs for my mother to take down to my Grandparents tomorrow when she goes down to visit. I then stopped at Giant to pick up a birthday card for Jess, some water for my mother and a gallon of Iced Tea for myself. When I turned into the parking lot, I saw the Montero sitting in the row in front of Rite Aid. So I parked and went in Giant and he was sitting in one of the motorized wheel chairs talking to someone. I talked with him some more until Robin came out and then we talked for a few minutes and then they headed on over to Rite Aid and I got what I needed and headed on home. Once at home I told my mother about my day and then I got on the PS2 to play my new game for about 2 hours. I then got off at 17:40 hours and ate dinner while I watched MASH on TV. I then took a shower and got back on the computer to do a few things. Then around 21:00 hours the pager went off for breathing problems in Halifax Township at our frequent flyer's place. I got changed and got in my car and headed to the scene to assist as we always expect the worse with him. I got there and Amanda and Scott were on 13-2 and Sue and Alf were on the scene. I parked behind Alf's vehicle and went inside and they were all in the bedroom. It ended up being a false alarm since the wife waited until he was asleep to call 911 and he was not happy. Sue said she gave him a sternum rub to wake him up, and when he did, he woke up swining. He ended up signing off and all of us headed back to what we were doing. Sue went back to the gym to tan and then work out, Alf went back to watch the State of the Union Address, and Amanda and Scott went back to the "Barn" and I headed on home. 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.
