Softball and More Possible Teaching Opportunities

Ugh.. those late evening softball games are hard on a guy the morning after. We did well, playing against lougarou's team. It was a great night to play. I had three times at bat. One beautiful shot to high left center that was caught, a one-foot drop that got me on base, and an odd hit that went almost over second base but was caught by the shortstop... darn her. Brian (cincycub) and Kevin (shimbexprovides) were in the stands watching. I'm glad they could make it out for such a late game.

A bright note from yesterday! A coworker came into my office yesterday and told me that he wanted to nominate me to teach at our national new hire course. He wants me to teach sections regarding the laboratory functions and he thinks that with my laboratory background I would be good for it. It's a big deal as this is a teaching group you actually have to audition for in order to join and all new employees take this class before taking any other off-site training. I was pretty flattered, so we'll see how that goes.
