huh?
So this weekend I had dedicated to finishing my research paper for CIS. Well, I finished it after work on Friday, so now I have all this free time that I had planned on using for my paper. Sometimes I hate when that happens, but most of the time I don't. But now that I think about it, I would almost like it better if I was busy every moment of the weekend because right now I feel restless. I feel like I am wasting time. And I hate that feeling.
I went on a ride-along with the cops last night. It was pretty fun, not that exciting, but I did get some good information for my Ethnography for CIS. Yes, I would say that the police are definitely a microculture. Anyway, the shift was from 9pm until 7am, but I could leave any time, so I decided to go home around 4 when the caffeine from my coffee started wearing off. It was pretty quiet for a Saturday night, and I didn't really think I would miss anything exciting. We had a couple medical calls, a couple loud music disturbances, a few bar fights, a lot of drunks, and one pursuit. That was fun, for a while, going down the road at 90 mph, lights and sirens. We got called off of it though because the suspect crossed into Blaine. =\ Oh well. Yeah...so...nothing big to write home about, but cool nonetheless. I slept 5 hours. But I'm not tired yet. It's weird. I will be as soon as I have to work for 6 hours tonight, I can guarantee that.
I dunno how my mom does it. She started on her ride-along the same time as me with another cop. She stayed all through the shift, till 7am, and now, I guess she's riding until 11am. So that's a 14 hour shift. She must reeeally like all this.
I guess we all have our hobbies. Hers is just a little weirder than most people's.
