im a numbers person and not a words person and as such i dont believe in capitals or apostrophes and i dont care for spelling things correctly... apparently this iirritates many.
i think i am in love. i hate adding punctuation to my typing, but i do...
I am a paramedic (also teach scuba) living in las vegas since '97. I moved out here, met a woman (no, not a stripper or showgirl) got married, got divorced, and now live alone in an apt with my two cats. I was raised in Marin County, the north side of the golden gate bridge, and was a medic in San Francisco before moving here.
I used to teach scuba for a dive store in novato, ca., and did the ocean training at fort ross or monterey. I was on the search and rescue team for the marin co sheriffs dept for about five years and was usually medical team leader or field operations supervisor. The highlight of my SAR career was a rescue we did with YOSAR of an injured climber that was injured and stuck 600' below the summit of el capitan. By the time we lowered our rescuers, raised them and the patient back up, it was too dark for the helo to land so we spent the night on the summit with our patient in a stokes litter. What a view, and it was as if you could touch the stars they were so bright.
Damn, did I ever just go off on a tangent. Somebody smack me next time I do that.
Oh, I just turned 36.
