Breaking news!

You all might get updates on consecutive days!

[Woy]

Actually, I'm not going to get the update done because I lost all my creative thought part-way through it. Nothing good is coming to mind right now.

I'll get it done tomorrow.

Two Visitors

"A local figure has died today..."

...

"So what's your affiliation with Ethan?"

"I used to be one of his former flings..."

---

"Woah, where am I?" I asked as I finally woke up. "The locker room wall wasn't white before."

"You're in the hospital Mr. Woy," a cute nurse answered. "That was some hit you took out there."

I had no clue why I was here or what she was talking about; all I knew is that my head was really ringing. "What hit?"

"Yeah, you definitely have a stage three alright," she said. "Your amnesia should leave within 24 hours. Until then, we're going to keep you here and do more tests."

"Okay," I replied as we both turned our heads to the sound of someone knocking on the door.

"Well it seems you have a visitor," the nurse said with a hint of disappointment after seeing Melyssa at the door. "I'll leave you two alone for a minute."

"Are you alright?" Melyssa asked as she shut the door behind her. "I wanted to run out on the field and beat that jerk up." We both smiled at the comment, but then she put on a different expression to indicate that she had some news for me.

"Yeah I'm fine," I answered, remembering over my amnesia who my ex-fiance was. "Doc said something about a stage two or three concussion."

"Well just do what they tell you to do and don't be stubborn," she chuckled. "Anyways, I have to tell you something about Christmas break."

"Yeah?"

"Well I know you'll have to stay on campus because of the bowl game, so my family and I were talking about going to South Carolina for the holiday. Would that bother you at all?"

"No, not at all. What about Sean Joseph?"

"I'll probably take him with me, just because I can have my family down south see him. I know you would love to spend Christmas with him, but with you being in Texas for the holiday, I don't see how that can work."

"Yeah, I guess you have a point."

"Tell you what," she started to say, lightening up the mood in the room. "How about when I go back home, I decide to come up and stay with you in the apartment? We can have our own little Christmas celebration!"

"I would love that," I responded with a smile. "Hopefully I'm not in the same condition after the game though."

"Don't say that," she shot back, punching me in the arm. "You'll be fine by then and you'll do great. Just have faith, babe." Then she looked at her cell-phone and realized what time it was. "Well hey, I have to go. Call me or something when you get out of here and I'll make sure to visit once before leaving, okay?"

"I definitely will."

---

"Would you be interested in..."

"Tell me more..."

---

"Ethan," the nurse said as I slowly woke up from a nap. "It seems like you have another visitor." I saw Britt standing outside the door with two soft drinks, a take-out bag from Applebee's and an innocent smile on her face. The nurse left the room and Britt set the food on the side-table.

"Hey," I greeted her. "You bringing me dinner?"

"Of course hun," she said. "I figured you had a rough day and I wanted to make it better. How are you feeling?"

"I feel a little better," I answered. "My head is still pounding from the hit and I can't remember the game if I tried."

"Well you can remember me right?" she joked.

"No matter how many times I have a concussion," I said, rubbing her leg. "I can never forget something as beautiful as you." Hey, at least I could still think out good, corny pick-up lines.

"That was really cute," she giggled. Smiling back at each other, she slowly fell into my bed and I started remembering how good of a kisser she was. However, a few good minutes of that were halted as the nurse walked back into the room.

"Sorry to interrupt," the nurse said, clearing her throat. "But visiting hours are just about over, so we're going to need you to go."

"Alright," she answered with a little bit of disappointment. "I'll be out in a few seconds." Then as the nurse walked out, Britt slowly put on her coat and gathered up her dinner. "Enjoy your dinner, babe. I'll be over tomorrow."

"Hopefully it's just as good as the appetizer," I replied with a smirk.

She smiled, gave me a farewell kiss and walked out. I then took just a few bites of dinner before succumbing to the pain that the concussion was bringing, and I drifted into a relaxing sleep.

[Woy]

I might try to get an update to you guys sometime today, but don't count on it.

Have to go to the Carnegie Art Museum for my Humanities class here in half an hour, then I have to work at the RMU/Quinnipiac game tonight.

[packersfan4eva]

Just dump Britt. Hurry up dude :D

[Woy]

Wow you need to make this into a screenplay my friend, you're writing ability is insane. I'm sure you're planning on making a career out of this?

Thanks man, I appreciate it.

As for a career, I'm currently majoring in Journalism and want to have my own column someday. This creative writing stuff is something I do on the side.

I'll have an update sometime today, possibly soon.

Head of the Game

The next few weeks consisted of saying goodbye to Melyssa, spending countless hours with Britt and going back to the hospital for concussion tests. Just a few days before we were scheduled to leave for El Paso, I had to go to the hospital one last time to see where I stood for the Sun Bowl.

...

"Well Mr. Woy," the doctor started. "After all your tests, we deemed you safe to play next week against Oregon State."

"Thanks Doc," I replied, never doubting for a second that I would be cleared.

"No problem. Now play hard out there; it's been quite some time since we last won a bowl game."

...

"Are you sure you have to leave, babe?" Britt asked sarcastically, while laying in my bed with just a t-shirt on.

"What kind of question is that?" I laughed. "Of course I have to go, I don't want to miss the plane."

"One more time?" she practically begged, but it was to no avail.

"Listen," I started off. "It'll only be a week. I'm sure you can wait that long for me to get back. In the meantime, just go have fun and enjoy yourself these next few days. I'll give you the spare key if you want to crash here."

"Alright I'll make sure to sleep with a different guy in your bed every night until you get back," she stated. I gave a look of disbelief and started to carry my bags out to the door, when she jumped out of bed to stop me. "It was a joke!"

"I know," I replied, smiling. "I just wanted to see your reaction." And with one last kiss, I made my way out the door and on my way to the airport.

...

"Finally out of the snow," I thought as the plane touched down on the runway. The sun was shining down on the Lone Star State and I hoped for the same type of weather for New Year's Eve.

After arriving at the hotel, I dozed off for a few hours before waking up to Ryan's voice telling me to get ready. Apparently I didn't pay attention in a meeting and forgot we had a team dinner with the Sun Bowl representatives.

But the Sun Bowl representatives weren't the only people joining us...

...

"What the fuck are they doing here?" Doug spit out as Oregon State's players walked through the door.

"Calm down Doug," Ryan said, holding him back from getting up. "Don't even associate with them; we'll kick their asses on the field."

"As long as we get first chance at the buffet, I won't have a problem with them," I jokingly replied. "Besides, I'm more worried about the shit we're supposed to get for making it to this game. I better be seeing something like a new iPod in these gift packages."

"Definitely," Ryan said, laughing. "I'll be making an eBay account if this shit is wack."

After everyone sat down, the head of the Sun Bowl committee made a quick opening speech and then had some of his co-workers pass out the gift packages. Surely enough, the gifts were not appealing whatsoever...seriously, a fleece pullover?

"Well we have motivation for next year boys," I stated, as I threw the pullover back in the box. "We are going to a bowl game that doesn't give shit for gifts."

The entire table - including some of the coaching staff - busted out laughing as some of the bowl representatives shook their head in disgust. Hey, maybe if you have thrown a new laptop in there, then I wouldn't be bashing your gifts.

Dinner went by pretty smoothly and the food was really good; I guess the reps got the meal right at least. However, we ran into a little trouble as we walked out of the room.

...

"Watch where you're going," a smaller Oregon State player shot at me as I accidentally ran into him.

"Maybe if you'd grow a little I wouldn't have ran into you," I mumbled under my breath.

"What was that?" Jacquizz Rodgers angrily asked. I didn't know whether to take him seriously or not, mainly because I couldn't see eye-to-eye with the Beavers' runningback.

"You heard me," I stated. "Or did my words float right over your head? I'm sure that happens quite often in your life."

He stared up at me for a few seconds, then shook his head and replied, "we'll see what happens Friday."

[Woy]

Another great writeup, I hope that Jacquizz is a cornerback, will be a great matchup if so.

He's actually their starting runningback, but it would affect the game story more if he was the cornerback.

Next update probably won't be till Tuesday, BTW.
