SPOKANE, Wash. – From the Indians game being cancelled and postponed to a half-mile stretch of road littered with downed lines and trees, the weather tonight has been wild!  Thunderstorms, hail, and what appeared to be a funnel cloud all added to the mayhem, to some unfortunate results. While the total extent of damage has not been tallied at this time, several extrication calls, a broken water…

Story time *jazz hands*

So I’ve joined up as a Jr fire fighter with my local station, yesterday I got to do some extrication training with the jaws of life in conjunction with the station and my EMT teachers fire fighting class.

Now my body is dead

For context, on Thursday I was on the run getting paper work and going to track practice, then I decided to go to the horse barn with my best friend to get some practice in because she signed me up for a show despite me not really knowing how to ride,

Unfortunately because I forgot to get my brother we were on a time crunch and decided to ride bareback and work on my balance .

Misty my friends horse is a bit of a brat, so Liv my friend had brought along a new bit that was “meaner” (hell if I know why but Misty wasn’t a fan.), normally Misty takes a lot of work to stop if your not careful but that day she was stopping on a dime because of this new bit.

So I end up in the sand of the ring four (?) times, once because I accidentally cantered and went flying, once because I stopped to fast and went flying, another time because I just can’t stay on a horse apparently and went flying and the last time I finally got up to a canter and then lost my balance, and you guessed it,

I went flying.

So by Friday I was already wicked sore, and realized I started work that day. This being my first job ever, and working as a blocker for a local market.

One 5 hour shift later and I felt like I managed to bog everyone down and also my feet felt like they were going to fall off.

That brings us to yesterday, during which I got up at 6 in the morning to go home from my grandparents house (I stayed there because it’s closer to my work) and go to the station to put on my heavy fire fighting gear climb in a truck and go to the junk yard to spend almost five hours moving heavy equipment and trying not to hurt myself or others before rushing home to make myself semi presentable and go to work for another five hours.

Although the second day was less brutal as the guy training me was a lot more confident and actually conversed instead of standing by awkwardly...

In any case today I have to help some ladies with there shopping at 11 and then go in for another shift.

I know it must sound like I’m just complaining about work but please remember, this is my first job, I forgot my adhd meds for two of the days described and had a terrible time paying attention, and My Lyme Disease means I have a healing rage of about 50-75% of what it should be.

Basically what takes most people my age a day to heal from takes me two to three days if I’m resting.

On the bright side the blocking is great practice for lifting/moving things at an awkward angle for EMT so... that’s cool I guess?

Thinking about Them (the characters in Extrication) at all times 🥺💖 All the love!

Always thinking about Them. 🥺💗 Some banter from the next chapter to tide you over under the cut, Anon. 💖

Nicky sits down and takes a drink of coffee, then makes a face and sets it aside. This is delightful to Joe.

“What’s wrong with the coffee?” Joe asks.

“Nothing’s wrong with the coffee.” Nicky gestures for Joe to lift up hand and then spreads out a sterile sheet on the table.

“He doesn’t like the coffee,” Nile says to Booker.

“Finally, someone with taste. I’ve been saying this for years,” Booker throws up his hands. “We need one of those machines with the little pods. I’m telling you—we put a sign out front, we’ll get a dozen machines donated by the end of shift. Problem solved.”

“Those machines are incredibly wasteful,” Nicky murmurs, cutting through the tape keeping the gauze in place on Joe’s finger. He inspects the wound again, Joe not entirely following the conversation because his focus is back on Nicky’s gloved fingers touching his hand.

“How is it wasteful?” Booker asks, leaning back on two legs of his chair. “You only make one cup a time.”

“It’s the plastic from the pods,” Nile says.

“Yes, exactly,” Nicky nods. “No, we need an espresso machine. It doesn’t have to be fancy.”

“But we could get one donated,” Booker continues thoughtfully. “Maybe I’ll make a sign for out front.”

“You go do that,” Joe recommends.

Booker laughs and gives a cheeky salute before leaving for the dorm.
