Emergency Personnel

Today started with my roommate’s alarm of going off. It ended up going off about 6 times before he got up because he kept hitting the snooze button. My roommate shall remain nameless. It's all good, because I really don't care that much and it was like 10 in the morning when it first went off. Anyway, my day was pretty relaxing. I got up and took a shower and then checked my e-mail and did various things on my computer until it was time for lunch. Ate lunch over at the girl’s and then came back and studied until about 3:30.

I was interrupted twice during my studding because of emergency personnel outside of my window. The first time there was a drug bust right outside of my window on the street, so I whipped out my police scanner and listened to the whole thing. After it was over I kept listening to the scanner, which was a mistake. I was listening to the Seattle Fire Department when I heard a call for an address that was again right by UCU. This time it was about a half block away. 7 fire engines, 2 fire battalions, 2 aid units, and like 4 other miscellaneous units were called out to a fire. I grabbed my scanner and went out side to the location of the address, and sure enough, it smelled like smoke and I was the first one there. Then I heard all of the sirens. It was fun being the first one there....everyone was out of the house when I got there, and it turned out not to be such a big deal after all. I guess what happed is that the inside walls of the chimney caught fire and started the siding of the house on fire. By the time the fire department got there, the home owner had already put it out. so they canceled about 10 of the units and the other five kept coming...The whole ordeal took about three hours, but I left like 10 minutes after I got there, I just kept listening to it on my scanner.

I went and hung out in Jacob's room for awhile and talked about guy stuff and laughed a lot. At about 4:30 I went with Ross and Jacob down to the IMA to work out. It was fun, and I felt good afterwards. Then I came back and took a quick shower and headed over to UPC with Pettis for their evening service. After the service I came home and watched the last little part of and all new Simpson’s. Then I watched 2 episodes of CSI season 2 on DVD with Allen and Katie. I really like the season two episodes of CSI, you should check them out.

After watching CSI I went over to get a drink and ended up talking to Katie, Christi, both Brian's and Linnell for about a half hour before finally heading off to bed.
