Accident in the Evneing
I went to bed Tuesday night around 02:00 hours and got up Wednesday morning at 07:10 hours when my alarm went off. I got out of bed and got dressed and then grabbed my digital camera and suitcase and took them out to the kitchen. I then packed my lunch and left the house around 07:25 hours and headed up to Eville to go to work. I stopped at Koppy's and grabbed a newspaper and a bottle of Gatorade and then continued to the station. I got there and parked and then grabbed my stuff and headed inside. Yeager was already up, as was Tim. I put my lunch box and bottle of Gatorade in the fridge and then I put my suitcase on the couch and clocked in. I then did a quick rig check on 6-5 and then Wertz came in, followed by Jim. I then came back in the day room and we all talked about different things with the company. I then got on the computer and filled out my forms while I ate breakfast. I then started doing a detailed inventory on the BLS room and Jim said it was time to go to breakfast. Shortly before he said that to me, Stutzman and Flipper came in from Lykens. Apparentlly they had already stopped at Special Place and ate breakfast, so the three of us went to Special Place to eat breakfast. I got a side order of bacon and a side order of white toast. After we were done, we headed back to the station. Once there I finished doing my inventory on the BLS room and then did the extrication cabinet, the ALS restock cabinet and the ALS room. I then got back on the computer and updated my list and put an order of supplies in. I then sat down on the one couch in the day room around 12:30 hours to finally read the paper. My mother called me shortly after I started reading the paper and I talked to her for a little bit. Boyer then started calling my name. I went out front and the UPS man was there and he had a big order for us. It was all 5 brand new scoop stretchers, and 1 of the new pediatric backboards. I helped Boyer carry the packages over to in front of the bays and then we took the one scoop stretcher out of the box to look at it. About that time the tones went off for breathing problems in Lykens Borough. 6-5 in Lykens took that call and then a minute later, the tones went off for heart problems in Northumberland County. Wertz took that call with the squad. I then went to work getting all the scoop's out and the straps on them and then got everything marked and put on 6-5, 6-7, and 6-8 which were all down at the Eville station. I then pulled the pediatric backboard out and got that marked up and got the straps on that and got that put on 6-5. I then went back in and sat down to finish reading the paper and eat lunch as it was now around 14:00 hours. I finished eating lunch and then I heard 6-3 backing up outside. So I threw my trash way and then went out into the bay and gave Stutzman the new scoop to go in 6-3 and we swtiched them out and then I gave him the new scoop to put on 6-4 which was up at Lykens. I then went back into the day room and finished reading the paper except for the sports section. Wertz then said that Jim looked like he needed to go get something to eat, so we all headed up to the Subway in the square so Jim could get something to eat. I decided to get a 6" meatball sub. We were probally there for over an hour talking about all the problems the asshole was caused since he got on the board of directors. We then headed back to the station and I read the sports section and then got on the computer to play some games and relax a little. About 30 minutes after I got on the computer another UPS man stuck his head in the bay door and I went out and it was the other four pediatric backboards and 1 of the new Reeves stretchers. So back to work I went marking the Reeves first and then marking all four of the backboards and getting there straps on and got them on 6-7 and 6-8 and sat thw two boards that have to go up to Lykens back by the wash room door. I then went back in and got back on the computer. I got off the computer around 19:40 hours and went out and laid down on the couch. Wertz was sleeping on the other couch and Jim was sitting in his office chair watching Judge Judy on TV. When it got closer to 20:00 hours I pretened I was sleeping so I wouldn't have to talk to Jim. I heard him get off his chair, go out to the bay and get his clipboard out of the truck and then come back in, clock out, go out the back door and the leave. I waited a few minutes and then sat up and changed the channel to the Discovery Channel and then started watching that. Then around 20:20 hours Wertz moved around some on the couch and I asked if he wanted anything to eat as I was going to get something from Jo-Jo's. He decided to get something also. After I called our orders in, I loaded all of the cardboard up into the back of 6-5 and we ran up to the recycling bins and dropped off the cardboard. We then parked in front of Jo-Jo's and we both ran over to Koppy's and I got a soda to drink with dinner, a chocolate milk for later on in the night and a small bag of chips. We then went over to Jo-Jo's and got out food and then headed back to the station. Once back there I ate my two slices of pizza while I watched the new Mythbusters on TV. Then around 21:40 hours I heard a pre-alert beep come over the scanner and I cracked open my fire pager and county dispatched Box 21-1 for an accident with injuries. I got up and headed to the bay when the tones went off. I got in 6-5 and put us responding right away and then Wertz came out and got in and off we went. It ended up being a BLS patient and her boyfriend refused treatment, but rode down with us to the hospital to be with his girlfriend. We ended up boarding her and took them down to Holy Spirit Hospital. After we got what we needed down there, we headed on back to the station. Once there we restocked the equipment we used on her and then I got my times and did my charts and then checked a few things online. I then laid down on the couch and went to sleep around 01:45 hours. I woke up this morning at 07:50 hours. I got up and got the stuff back on my belt and then put my pillow away in my suitcase and then went out to the truck and grabbed my scope and bag and took them in and put them with my suitcase. I then filled out my time card for my two weeks and I then heard Kathy come in. I clocked out and then I started talking to her and finally left there around 09:00 hours. I headed on home and once at home I talked to my mother for a little bit and then I changed into pj's and went back to bed to get some more sleep. I woke up around 11:35 hours and got out of bed. I then ate lunch and read the paper and helped my mother bring some stuff down from the attic. I then ran into town and got some bug and tar remover for my car as I had gotten some tar on it and then I got a case of beer for the party Saturday night at the fire house. I then headed on home. I dropped my case off at the fire house and then continued on home. Once at home I used the bug and tar removed on my car and then I washed my car and swept it out. I then got on the computer to do a few things. My mother then took April up to the vents around 16:00 hours. I then ate dinner while I watched MASH on TV. I then took a shower and had 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.
