minutiae
My mental state is still a shit show -- of the kind that has rarely been fixable without some kind of Event to look forward to, but since I don't have a concert until November, have no friends visiting, am super broke and can't even finish unpacking my living room there's no real way to come up with any kind of Event to reset my cognitive process -- and my boss is still out sick.
There's exactly one merit to this: time to go to my favorite hole in the wall Korean BBQ for lunch, because while I can't actually afford it, I don't have any lunch so if I'm going to be spending money on food anyway ... I also need to refill my MetroCard before tomorrow, so an extra subway trip certainly won't hurt. Even if it does mean I have to deal with the bullshit hill on my way back. Walking up that thing is essentially high-intensity interval training and is why I don't take the A to work on a regular basis.
My boss being out also means that I'm largely out of work I can do at my desk, which ... means I'm sitting here trying to look like I'm working until I have to run a meeting at 3.
ETA: Oh, FR people, if you need a Shadow to pull marketplace stuff for you using dominance discount, please hit me up, it also makes it look like I'm working. Diligent computering!
ETA 2: I actually did manage to find some work, how about that. The fact I had to look was a little sad. It's not that it's not there, it's just that reporting is all waiting on other people right now ...

concert & meeting
You live in NYC, right? Any chance you'd be interested in going to an Indigo Girls concert in mid-October https://www.msg.com/calendar/beacon-theatre-october-2018-indigo-girls and/or a REMSCO meeting in late October? http://www.nycremsco.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/2018-2019-REMSCO-Calendar-land-Final.pdf
Re: concert & meeting
As for the REMSCO meeting, I could consider it - the 23rd is my mom's birthday but if she doesn't want to do anything (she's out in Westchester), that's something I could bring the dog with me to (he's SDIT). I haven't been to anything EMS-related in years so it's honestly very tempting
even if I'm not planning to recert my paramedic license because it's too much work; maybe I can step down to EMT-I.Re: concert & meeting

I wish I could just pull the information you're looking for, but I'm city DOHMH and we apparently do not have access to it as far as I can tell! And I've only worked as a paramedic upstate so I don't even have an out of date list.
AEDs, PAD, etc.
