At some point, I'll catch up on the sleep I missed with the night shift, right? I'm tired of sleeping really well and then atill being tired when I wake up.

I might leave a few minutes early and get a big macchiato from Starbucks. I'll see what I feel like doing on my way to work. The extra shot of esspresso would be helpful.

Yesterday was a little busy. We had three presenters come in to present on a variety of topics. More powerpoints, whee. Some were interesting, but most kind were repetitive and boring. We learned about the EMS service, our internal people and verhicle lookup and then last, we learned about the mental health resources available. In between, we did Computer Aided Dispatch, and studied.

I'm struggling with the stuff for this week's test. My brain is so full, it doesn't feel like I can stuff anymore in. I'm going to, but it's been difficult. I really should have been working on it Friday night instead of reading the rest of Starter Villain by John Scalzi. (Thoroughly enjoyed it. Much like Kaiju Protection Society, it was an awesome romp.) Oh well, I'll get there.

Today we start working on Protocol. It's the class that trains us what to do in any situation. We have a software that we plug in the symptoms, and it tells us exactly what to say. Which is why sometimes the questions a 911 operator may ask seem to come out of nowhere. It's because that's where the protocol is directing us.

Protocols last for 3 days for the Medical side, two days for Police, and one day for fire. Emergency medical is the rest of our week, aside from half an hour to do our quiz on Friday morning.

Okay, time for me to consider getting my ass in gear. Everyone have a wonderful Wednesday!
