    That sucks, but thank you. Merry Christmas.

    I'm lucky. All the students have gone home for Christmas. We call it exodus. So, no real work for me until the 3rd.

    Sorry I missed this buddy. There is no bigger sacrifice than to be at the beck(sp) and call of those in need. Thank You for being there so that the rest of us can be safe. Merry Christmas Broth er.

    Default I know how you feel...

    This is the first Christmas I've had off in about 5 years. It just happened that my off days fell on Sun, Mon, Tue. I woulda fought tooth and nail for it his year though since it's my son's first Christmas. My family still lives in Tampa so I'm doubly appreciative of your duty. Be safe and enjoy your off days, man.

    Well already had one OD that got intubated and a slew of BS calls for people that want attention!

    At least The rain finally let up enough to borrow our neighbors wireless connection to hang out with my pals at CS.com!!


    We have had a few tornadoes touch down in the tampa bay area(large area) and massive amounts of rain. Hopefully it will let up enough so i can try to smoke one of my Super premium yardgars! lol


    Take care everyone. Hopefully the day will get better!

    I hope everyone is having or has had a good time with family/in laws. This can be a very stressful day of the year for many. Just make the best of it and look at what you have and be appreciative!

    Woohooo I Am home....and christmas flew past me and scattered some gifts under the tree. Sadly No one is here to watch me open them! Oh well....

    Time for me to take a nap, we had rediculously busy day yesterday!

    All in All though I couldn't have asked for a better crew to work with and we had a GREAT meal at the station!

    Good night!
