A long and boring night.

Normally, having a slow night doesn't bother me much. I mean, I can usually find things to do... but in Kinsley a slow night is a slow night.
On a normal night, dispatch usually handles two officers - one PD (city) and one SO (county).[1] Sometimes on weekends, the PD sends out two, but usually it's just me, the radio, and two guys on the other end.
Tonight was a little different. Everybody (but me) went home by midnight. That's means 7 hours where it's me, the computer, and the slight chance the phone might ring. It's been a long shift.



[1] Day shift is a little busier, 1 PD and 2 SO.
