Shit Magnet

I left the house around 19:10 hours last night and headed up to Eville to go to work. Once up there I parked and Tim and Stutzman came out to smoke and we talked until the tones went off at 19:35 hours for breathing problems in Halifax Township. Tim made the comment about he wondered where Wertz was at. I said not to call Wertz and get him all wound up for the night, especailly since Tim had said 5 minutes earlier that he hadn't run a single call all day. He got in the squad and headed on down to Halifax. I then took my suitcase and Gatorade bottle in. I put my Gatorade bottle in the fridge and then quickly asked Stutzman about the truck. I got on the computer to get the rig check sheet ready and I opened my check when Audrey came in and asked if I could run Wertz down to Halifax to relieve Tim once he was done getting changed. I said that was not a problem. Once Wertz got changed, I ran him down to the scene, which was at Boyer Apartments. They switched out and I ran Tim back up to the Eville station. As we were passing 13's station, the tones went off for chest pains in Eville Borough. Tim called Tracey up in Lykens and told him that he was coming back with me as Wertz switched out with him and he was unavailable to take that call. So Yeager and Tracey took the call and went to Harrisburg Hospital. I dropped him off and he left and then I went over supplies and 6-4. I then put an order in and filled out my rig check sheet and then did a few things online. Around 22:10 hours I believe it was I heard 13-2 go available. About 15 minutes later the tones went off for bleeding in Upper Paxton Township at SLV. I called Wertz to see where he was and he said he was at the light in Eville. He said he would be there in a minute and then we would run down as the MICU. While we were heading down there, county hit for a sick person class 3 at SLV. They ended up hacing 20-2 handle the sick person call and we took the bleeding call. We got there and went inside and got the lady loade up and headed on down to Osteo. Once we got what we needed down there, we headed on back. We stopped at Sheetz so Wertz could get something to eat. I grab some chicken strips and some fries and while we were there, the tones went off for a sick person, class 3 in Lykens Borough. I started laughing as Yeager now had to get out of bed and run a call for the night. We then headed back up to Eville. Well they ended up talking the guy in to a refusal and went available. Once back at the station, I helped Wertz restock both sets of gear and then ate my chicken while I did a few things on the computer. I then went to sleep at 02:00 hours and woke up at 07:56 hours when the phone rang and little Wertz was running back the hall to get it when I grabbed it. It was Kathy, John was going to be 30 to 45 minutes late as his alarm clock bettery died. I then clocked out at 08:15 hours when Wertz said that him and Brian would run as a MICU if they got anything until John got there. I then left at 08:30 hours and headed on home. Once at home I changed into my pj's and went back to bed to get some more sleep. I woke up this afternoon around 13:30 hours. I got out of bed and ate lunch while I read the paper. I then got on the computer and did a few things. I then ate dinner while I watched MASH on TV. I then changed into street clothes and left around 18:00 hours and headed up to the fire house for the meeting tonight. I got up there and Katina and Bill pulled in about 2 minutes after I did. Once inside the hall I turned on the back air conditoner and then put in the front one and turned it on and then plugged in the two fans to help move some air around. I then moved some things around and then we had the meeting. The meeting was over fairly quickly and then we all shot the shit outside afterwards. I left up there around 20:50 hours and headed on home. Once at home I took a shower and had a quick snack. I am soon going to bed as I am tired.
