Shredding Stuff

I spent a lot of time today going through boxes of papers and items. I worked on shredding a lot of stuff that needed to be shredded. Then I spent more time scanning items so I had a digital copy of them. That will allow me to throw away many of the papers I really don’t need to keep any more.

We were going to have the Palousitics party today. I had been in Colfax. I got a computer from Poffenroth to work on. I also talked to the people at IS for a while. I was at the fire station. We were there with some troopers having Subway subs and talking about the number of fatal car accidents.

I got home and I was on my computer when I hear Colfax get dispatched to a Bravo response for a car on fire. Then they upgraded to Delta for a head-on accident with someone unconscious. That was all I heard about it.

I was on my way to the Palousitics party when I heard the people on scene talking about Paul Twenty-Two and Paul Sixty-Four. I knew I would be going on the car accident. I got a call from Pete about ten minutes later asking if I could go. I responded to the scene and started to do my investigation. It was clear that it was a really bad wreck. I mentioned that it seemed that each wreck was trying to outdo the last one based on how bad they were getting. Someone else spoke up and said that he had thought the same thing.

I also mentioned to Krause that it was interesting that the debriefing that was supposed to happen for another department this evening was cancelled. Because of that several of the people on scene would have been at the debriefing. Krause mentioned that it was Divine intervention.

Following the removal I went to the funeral home with Pete to look over the body and determine the actual case of death. We spent time doing that and getting all the data we needed for our reports.

I went to the Colfax Fire station following that, I talked to the family and then I was inside talking with the guys there. Scott blamed me for this one because I (as well as the others) had been talking about this down at the station a few hours earlier.

I finally got home around three in the morning and I was ready for bed.
