Part-time Paramedication: September 2006

Tuesday, September 26, 2006. Saving lives and warm fuzzies. For the record, in 6 months of being a paramedic I have technically saved one life. I think I can safely say that 'saving lives' is not the main part of this job. The other day, a medical office assistant reminded me what this job is all about. My partner and I were waiting in a doctor's office for a patient to finish his appointment with the doctor. The office assistant looked over and said, "You guys do a really great job! Last night I worked ...

Part-time Paramedication: December 2006

Saturday, December 30, 2006. For Christmas I got a new hair straightener which heeded this warning:. 6 Never use while sleeping. Phew, that was close. Posted by Robyn Bishop @ 3:31 PM. Monday, December 11, 2006. So it finally hit me that Christmas is coming and there's nothing I can do to slow that down. This is our tree in all it's glory:. We even bought lights, garlands and bobbles to put on our tree. This was quite the initial investment. If you know anyone getting married before/during/or jus...Anywa...

Part-time Paramedication: June 2006

Monday, June 26, 2006. Garbage dump fire = stink. Yes, it's true. If one mixes the already repulsive smell of the garbage dump and the miracle of fire, one gets a disgusting smelly mess. How would I know? Well, I'll tell you. It's because I was there. For four. Presently in Squamish protecting the lives of thousands via the ambulance service, I was called out for a fire standby yesterday. This is normally pleasant and here is why:. This particular fire standby was not pleasant and here is why:. Tonight w...

Part-time Paramedication: January 2007
http://urgentoppossum.blogspot.com/2007_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 19, 2007. So here we are, and by we I mean me, wishing that there were something interesting to post. Seems like every time I have an 'Oh, I should blog that' moment I just as quickly proceed to forget what it was I was going to blog. Mostly, I feel that my life is lack luster compared to some who may be getting married or having small Bambinos (that's Ramer-speak. For babies). There will be no Bambinos here for quite a long time. In this episode because dang he's hot.'. PS Take that Leafs.

Part-time Paramedication: October 2006

Sunday, October 29, 2006. Which was ridiculously artsy but quite enjoyable, especially the second time around when the lead actor's fly was down for the entire first act. I had to sit back and laugh and laugh. it was unintented, but how very artsy. Being at the U of C stirred up many fond memories of my time at college and at the academy. Part of me wishes that I could still be a student and then I wonder.why? What would I take? My paramedic course was only 8 months. Hopefully, in the future, God wil...

Part-time Paramedication: August 2006
http://urgentoppossum.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 31, 2006. So, here are some picture insights into my life. who doesn't love a good picture? Don't lie, I know you all do. The pictures are out of order but I really dont want to shuffle them around right now, so think of it as a challenge. what order did I really want to put the pictures in? How fun. I am jealous of. For having the fun that I will never myself experience. Outside the shack is 'the other' Ryan (one I went to school with) with a reluctant looking Code 3 the Station Kitty.

Sunday, February 18, 2007. Too much work makes Robyn something something. Well shoot, I got coerced into this new Blogger thing too. really, I had no choice and who is Blogger to take that choice away from me? Okay, I'm over it now. So, we're moving on March the 1st!

Almost got attacked by killer raccoons. 3 very large killer raccoons. Discovered this hilarious video:.

Part-time Paramedication: July 2006

Thursday, July 20, 2006. Not quite literary genious. So, I have noticed that there is a growing trend in literary genious sweeping the blogging world. As I have been 'blog hopping' I have seen an increase in deeper thoughts, more pressing issues and more articulate text. The pressure for us under-educated-with-only-a-diploma-and/or-certificate folk is immense. I, for one, am feeling crushed with the pressure to perform and create a. Articulate blog than the last. But, I don't think I'm going to do that.

Part-time Paramedication: March 2007
http://urgentoppossum.blogspot.com/2007_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 06, 2007. Have had TB a few weeks earlier and one thing about my job is that you never really find out the conclusions of these tests and things. Anyways, turns out that I should be relieved. I don't have TB (and neither did my patient), I was just coughing so much that I burst some blood vessels in my lungs and. Why I was coughing up blood. My lungs hurt. Probably. but whatever. sweet sweet internet. I could quit any time I wanted to. I could.really. Until next time, keep fit and have fun.
