Last night's outing to pick out pumpkins and do family dinner was cut short by a call-out - fortunately nothing more than a nice chunk of hours for the overtime check.
Then I rolled into a DUI special for the evening; I hadn't realized that it was apparently drunk night throughout town. If I counted right, between the special & regular patrol officers we had about 14 DUI arrests last night - made for a slow time at the jail, but good to get them all off the street. I lucked out with mine as well as she was honest, polite, and in no other ways a pain in my butt. Much easier to deal with than some of the others I saw.
Off for the next week unless I get called in for any bomb stuff. Other than that I plan to enjoy some family time & get a few projects done.

"This report is maybe 12-years-old. Parliament buried it, and it stayed buried till River dug it up. This is what they feared she knew. And they were right to fear because there's a whole universe of folk who are gonna know it, too. They're gonna see it. Somebody has to speak for these people. You all got on this boat for different reasons, but you all come to the same place. So now I'm asking more of you than I have before. Maybe all. Sure as I know anything I know this, they will try again. Maybe on another world, maybe on this very ground swept clean. A year from now, 10, they'll swing back to the belief that they can make people . . . better. And I do not hold to that. So no more running. I aim to misbehave." ~ Captain Malcom Reynolds
