today i got a chemical burn at work. man, does phenol burn fast. i wasn't really wearing the proper attire, and a few drops splattered on my arm. i know have these black spots where it used to be skin. a coworker of mine got 500ul or 0.5 mls on her once and it was a pretty bad burn. luckily, mine was just a drop.. enough to leave a scar the size of finger nail. man, that is some pretty dangerous stuff - i never realized the potency of just a small drop of something called phenol.

my company team won the palo alto softball championship yesterday. we won 10-0 with only one man reaching 3rd base. it made our manager/coach amy cry .
i played first base with some great catches and also went 2 for 2 with a two runs scored. overall, a great game.
