...June 8th, 2009...coming off shift and happy to have the next two days off from the firehouse...excited about spending time with Addy and taking her swimming in the morning...
...I wouldn't say you ever sleep well in the firehouse...I mean you can sleep hard...but only because you are tired...especially since we have an ambulance, engine, and truck company under one roof.
...The only call of significance last night was a young man who wrecked his buddy's motorcycle...evidently he had borrowed it to go pick up his keys from a friends house and was caught speeding...he tried to outrun the police, but ended up wrecking in a neighborhood in our 1st due...I'd imagine he was going to be very sore this morning, but he refused transport...wanted to go ahead and go get the "booking" process completed.
...Funny thing about going on calls like that...even though people are typically humble when they make a mistake is you see people for you the are...genuinely...I'm not sure how many people in my field of work actually think about that...but I definitely find it to be an eye opening experience...
