So I’m sitting eating lunch this afternoon, and bang, I spat my food across the table when it occurred to me that it was two years ago today that Jesse was killed. Somehow, as much as I knew it had been, it had partially slipped my mind with my being rather busy and trying to keep on top of my schoolwork. I know it is stupid, but yeah, the whole ( Read more... )

Ok, for some reason LJ wouldn’t let me log on all weekend. Total bullshit, but whatever. So I definitely thought it was going to be a deadly weekend, and well, it turned out to be just the opposite. I went to work Friday for like 2 hours (total waste of my time) and when I left came up with the grand idea to go to Woods Hole, for pretty much no ( Read more... )

Adam called me on Monday to tell me he resigned from all three of his paramedic jobs. He said that it was due to the “political bullshit” that has been going on lately, and he knows it will only get worse. I have a feeling it all started when he tried to have me do a ride-a-long with him and some supervisor threatened to fire him if he tried to do ( Read more... )

Wow, so my dad is so great. He definitely spent all his free time today making phone calls to get info mailed to me about the ATF for my American government project. Like, I didn’t even ask, he just did it and called me tonight to tell me that there would be a couple packets coming soon. Such an awesome guy ( Read more... )

So first things first. Thank you Ian and Mr. Schumaker! I had an awesome time shooting Sunday and am definitely looking forward to going again. Anyway, I decided to go to New Haven for the weekend to see some various people, including my wonderful sister. Finally after getting to Jess’s (bad, bad trip with the crazy snow storm) we decided that it ( Read more... )

Ok, so my sister and I are way too alike. I have been meaning to call her since Tuesday night to see if she was going to be around this weekend so I could see her, Ian, etc. and just hadn’t quite gotten there. So finally after dinner Chris was like, you better call her now, and so I did. And wouldn’t you know it, she was picking up the phone to ( Read more... )

Ok, so apparently it is slightly harder than initially thought to shovel snow off boats, especially when they are in the water. I definitely nearly went swimming a few times (or maybe even ice skating). I had to laugh when he handed me the shovel to use. It is simply a beach toy shovel on steroids. The sad part is, the toy worked perfectly. Anyway ( Read more... )

Ok, so why do I spend the 75 cents to buy a newspaper when all it does is make me depressed? Oh well, anyway, it is back at good old Mass Maritime for me. For once I am actually glad to be at school. The winter was definitely a huge drag minus the last week. I mean, there are just so many squad/fire calls I can go on, so many books I can read, and ( Read more... )
