New Scott Air Packs.

I am going to play cards this evening but we are going to have training on the new Scott air packs and I need to get fit tested. I also have Bryce and his friend, Brett, coming over to play. Bryce is from my IM football team. He will also be playing softball on my team. I figured if I went to the early class I could get to play cards earlier. I asked my boss if I could go. She let me. So I left work at two-thirty to head to Pullman. When the class was done I was going to go back to Colfax. I had to get the SCBA fit test done however. That sucked because it looked like I still might have to wait until eight-thirty to do that. Then I found out that Terry would be doing it earlier. He said he was heading to the WSU fire station. I went up there right away to get first in line so I could get back to work. I waited and waited. After an hour I called the Pullman station. They said Terry had "just left". So I waited some more. After about a half hour he still was not there. I thought about getting dinner then I decided not to. I waited some more. I am a pretty patient guy really. The problem is that now I was not going to get back to Colfax to work. I am going to have to make those hours up. I did not want to do that.

Terry finally showed up at about six-thirty. I got my fit test done and was at my office by seven-thirty. I had to pick up Ryan on the way. I also stopped to get some pizza and pop.

Bryce and Brett showed up shortly thereafter. Meredith also came. Dan showed up when he was done with the training. John was at WSU fire. I went to pick him up. We have seven people around a table just big enough to fit four. It worked out okay. I was the change man. I cashed out fifteen dollars worth of change. I still have a tone of change in my bag. That was nice to get the cash. We played until eleven o'clock. I won money tonight. It was nice.

I gave John a ride home and then I went home myself. I watched the end of Dream House on A&E. There is one guy named Mike. He is a ten-six-seven. He has really nice blue eyes and a great smile. I am rooting for him to win.
