Ugly Splits and Other Less Notable News

The Ugly Sticks had there second double-header last night. They lost the first game and won the second. Scott hit a line drive toward third base, where Daniel was waiting to run home. Daniel tried to jump out of the way and took the ball on the inside of his calf--ouch! He says it doesn't hurt that bad because it grazed off the side rather than hitting him square. It looks ugly regardless. I got to put in some hours at another store yesterday. I worked at one of the Lloyd Center stores in the lab mostly. Being a mall store, the clientele is different than ours. Mostly repeat photo-finishing customers who stop by in the morning and pick up at lunch or after work. There is also a huge science and engineering fair in town (Intel ISEF 2004), so there are also lots of teachers, parent hosts, and students coming in for disposable cameras. The staff members at the store were all nice and welcoming, which helped the day to go by pretty fast. Next week, I will also get to work at the other Lloyd Center store for 3 days. Daniel has the bathroom cabinet/sink almost done. All that we lack is replacing a fitting that broke when he was re-installing the sink. It looks really nice. Up next: the kitchen counters/ cabinets/ sink. It's hard to get things done fast when you are working a full time job and all the other stuff that we do, plus whatever else life decides to throw at you. We've been making time to do stuff with eachother on at least one of our days off together. It will be nice to have everything finished in here...maybe another month.
