My Messed Up Lip

So I had a flag football game on Friday, November 9th and it started out as just a regular game.  We were in the single elimination tournament portion of the season so we were all pretty excited.  The game started out well.  We stopped them on defense with a goal line stand and then threw a deep pass to score a touchdown.  After that they got the ball back and came all back down and were right on the goal line when I intercepted a pass and ran it all the way back to just past midfield.  After that we scored again but didn't convert the two point conversion so we were up 14-0.  That's how the half ended and I remember starting the second half and how we had the ball and then threw an interception and were on defense, but after that I don't remember much.  Apparently on a play I went up for the ball in the middle of two guys on the other team and ended up on the ground.  We all got up and I started walking towards the sideline staring at the ground and my lip was cut way open. 

I don't remember any of this but then Brienne took me to the hospital.  On the way I kept asking her the same questions over and over again.  Then I kind of remember going into the emergency room and talking to a guy and a girl at the front desk.  Then I kind of remember going into a room with a nurse for a little bit.  And then I kind of remember ending up in another room where a doctor checked on me.  I was in and out a lot during this whole time.  So the regular doctor passed me on to a plastic surgery to do the stitches cause he had more expertise in that area.  So the first doctor numbed me up, which was by far the most painful part.  Then Dr. Todd Cook stitched up my lip with some white stitches on the inside muscular portion and some blue ones on the outside.  I am supposed to get them out in 10 days time and during this time eating solid foods isn't going to be a real possibility.  So we bought some yogurt and jello and that is going to be my diet for a while.  I think I'll make it though.  So that was my little crazy experience.  The good news is that my lip is going to heal with only minor scarring and my football team won 28-0.  So I'm not really in much pain.  The right side of my face is a bit sore, but all in all I'm feeling fine.  I just can't kiss Brienne as well as I used to.
