Sleepless night... Take two..

Its 6PM on 20 May 2009 and I just got off the phone with a friend. I need to be at the bus station at 3AM heading to Pansol. From Pansol I will go to Batangas (I am guessing near Lipa city) and then visits a resort and after that we are heading back to Pansol to rock out in a private resort private hot springs, and head back to Metro Manila. Who says being a Freelance Medic is no fun?



Well, It looks like another night I will not sleep as I have such an early morning. I will take some… Continue

sleepless night...

As I am sitting here writing this blog I am thinking about how many times I have had a sleepless night and I find myself realizing that I have quite a bit of sleepless nights. I know the remedy and yet I still do not follow it. I need to not take a nap in the afternoon. Maybe too much stuff is on my mind and thats why I cannot sleep. Hmm, I know what I will do. I will play Command ond Conquer 3 and beat that game. Muahh, the kid inside of me wins yet another round.

Great success

Great success for me as I passed my kidney stones!

Wow I am in a ton of pain as I had two large stones but still, I am happy the worst is over. Ladies, I know your awesome for having child birth and I know the pain your in. You have my sympathy.

Men, I do not wish Kidney stones upon you. Brothers, I am free!!!! No more stones.

Time to celebrate as soon as the burning stops.

Have a good one and stay safe.

I am in a 3rd world country and there is no standard here but a ton of firefighters tell me they want a standard and they want to follow NFPA standards but some of those firefighter do not practice that standard after they are informed of the NFPA standard and that leads me to think they never wanted to follow a standard but instead they just wanted the knowledge and will ignore standards as much as possible. Right now both of my fire brigades can respond within 15 minutes to a call within… Continue

My threashhold and when to call it quit (kidney Stones)

Last month I started having pain when I urinated and I did not think anything of it since I am clumsy and sometimes rack myself by mistake and feel it the next day. I slipped while on my roof the other day (sheet metal roof and a nail broke through the wood sending the metal panel and me to slide down the roof) and I ended up with the antenna pole falling on top of me. I am ok after that but just needed a few minutes to get back up.



I though my pain was because of the antenna falling… Continue
