i haven't updated in forever. it's been a long week since then. last monday i had to go to a bad car accident. i arrived there right as they were putting a coding four year old on the airlift. i didn't see the actual cpr, but i saw the medic who had been doing it after and he looked rough. i did, however, have to see them take her mom's body out of the suv and put it right into the funeral home's vehicle. i've been on the scene of fatal accidents before, just never had to see that. the little girl died the next day.

wednesday was the first day of school here and a little girl was hit by the bus as she was trying to catch it. i wasn't there right after the accident, but i had to go out to the scene later and then to the memorial for her. the whole town was very upset by it, so it was difficult to shoot.

sunday the police officer on a motorcycle at the end of her funeral procession was hit by a car. he's still in a drug induced coma at the hospital. i watched them load him onto the helicopter. i could see he'd been intibated, but they tried telling us he was still consious at first, which was only making me worry for him more at first if they were gonna lie about that. they told us the truth about it pretty quickly though, and even though it still wasn't good, the fact they were being truthful about it helped some.

that was three accidents so i guess they do come in threes. i was talking to the medic who had been working on the four year old and was at the bus scene and he seemed to be in rough shape. he's friends with j and he was telling me that it had shaken him up quite a bit. of course, taht still makes me want to continue training for that even more. i hated not helping and even though they had enough people to do what was needed, i could have been one of them too.

things now have settled down. s is now in his loser phase of his cycle. i swear that boy's a woman. he goes a few weeks happy and talking to me, gets all moody then stops responding with more than one word when i im him, i swear i'm not gonna im him until he ims me first, he does like nothing bad has gone on and we start it all over again. i need less stress than him. i have a potential new one i'm gonna work toward the next few days. we'll see how that goes.
