Long time no update...

It's been a while since my last update on everything... So here we go.

First off, I have applied for the Oakland City Fire Department. I went at the end of June and picked up my application, and then turned it in the following week. Just this last Saturday I went back again and took the written exam.

The written exam wasn't what I expected. It was some math, some reading comprehension, and a lot of diagram and map comprehension. Overall after this test I feel pretty good... There is only one problem, I was taking the test in a gym. "So." You might say, well I was in a gym with almost 600 other guys applying for the same thing! haha Needless to say, I have some stiff competition.

So, basically if I happen to get through the written part, I move into the physical agility, then if I pass that its on to the oral boards, but for now, I am just waiting to see the results of the written. Stay tuned for updates on this.

Second, is the latest updates from the new department. Simply, since the new pager, I have been on a few calls, but for the most part there hasn't been much action. Either we get cancelled or we just don't get anything worth writing about, but keep your eyes here for stories when they come.

And last but not least, for those Rescue Me fans out there, has this season started with a bang or what?! We are now 2 episodes in and... Well... How do I say it other then, there is so much stuff going on already, that this season is shaping up to be probably the craziest yet!

And that's it!
