I really haven't posted much about my days as an EMT. Its not that there aren't stories to tell, because there are (in fact I keep hoping that someday I'll actually finish the memoir of my EMS career I started more than a year ago). I've been out of action as an EMT for eight years now, but I still love a good story from the streets. I recently noticed a link on
suellenr's LJ to a blog that looks to keep me well fed with these stories. Night Runs is a blog maintained by some of her firefighter and paramedic friends. From what I've read so far, it is very well written, and provides some wonderful insights into what its like on the streets as a firefighter or EMT. I've found it very entertaining so far. If you'd like a taste of what my life was like before I became a family man, you should check it out. (I've added a LJ syndicated feed at
night_runs, so you can add it to your friends page, if you're interested.)

But I'm glad you can get your fix. That's pretty cool. And I was just saying to Czukie last night -- isn't it sweet that our MrQGeek is married to a nurse? We love that!
Now the important question -- when are you going to finish that memoir? I'd like a copy registered on my shelf before the end of 2007. How's that?

2. tell the story on your anniversary. Someone suggested that when I posted our engagement pics, so I did the story on August 10 :)
(unless it's the last day of December. Then I'd like to hear it sooner)

It's new, so only 5 or 6 posts. I've got another one rolling around in my brain now, though.
