Fighting Entropy
I often like to talk about this new career I'm in, Fire EMS, as being a soldier of Order. That is, my enemy is not the Taliban, or thieves, killers, ideological enemies. My enemy is entropy, Chaos. And while that is doubly true in my work, it's also true in my daily life. Because so tight is my schedule, and I suspect for many other people as well, that I literally can't afford to let entropy get ahead of me.
