A Cold Wave

I left the house last night around 19:05 hours and headed up to Lykens to go to work. I stopped at the Tower Mini Mart and got something to snack on and then headed to the station. The crew was out when I got there as I parked and took my stuff inside I noticed the unit was gone. I clocked in and put my stuff in the fridge and then swept the bay since the unit was gone. Ron then came in and we got talking and then Zach and Tommy got back with 6-8 and then the four of us got talking. Ron then laid down on the couch to get some sleep and I did a rig check on 6-8 and then filled out the proper form on the computer and then sat down to watch the Discovery Channel. Then around 23:00 hours I went out and hosed the unit off and then talked to Bubba for about a half an hour. I then got on the computer for a little bit. I finally laid down in the bottom bunk a little after 03:00 hours. The Eville crew had already had a call around 20:00 hours that evening. Well now it was our turn. About 15 minutes after I laid down, the tones went off for a stroke in Lykens Borough. I got back up and got the stuff back on my belt and got my boots back on and then we went responding. After we got the lady loaded we took her down to Harrisburg Hospital. After we got what we needed we headed on back. While we were on our way down, the Eville crew got hit out to meet up with 20-1. We stopped at Sheetz so I could grab something to eat and then we made a quick stop at the Eville station. I took that opportunity to check the supplies, which helped elimante a stop I would need to make later on in the morning after I got off of work. We then headed back up to Lykens. As we were coming into Loyalton, the fire radio dispatched Company 27 to MI Doors and Windows in Gratz Borough for a Automatic Fire Alarm. We went responding and got placed in service before we got to the scene, so we went back to the station. Once there I ate my breakfast and did a quick tripsheet on the fire alarm and then laid back down around 07:00 hours and then Ron did his chart. Tim then came in and I woke up and got the stuff back on my belt and got my boots on and put my pillow away. Kathy then came in and I gave her the unit report and then I clocked out and left and headed to Wal-Mart. Once there I got my printer cartridge and then went to Shell and got gas and then stopped at Swab's to see how the body is coming along. Me and Jay talked for a little bit and then I headed on home. Once at home I changed into pj's and went back to bed to get some more sleep. I woke up this afternoon around 14:00 hours and I got out of bed and ate lunch while I read the paper. I then changed into street clothes and headed up to the fire house around 16:00 hours to run spy-bot on the computer at the station and then help with bingo tonight. Jess and Katina were already up there when I got there. Jess had Jaz and they were in the hall getting everything set up for the night and Katina was down in the station. I then helped Katina bring in all the stuff for making subs tomorrow night and then went back down to the station to work on the computer. Bingo was low on attendance tonight. After bingo was over a few of us stood around and shot the shit and then we all left and headed on home. Once at home I took a shower and 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.
