So I was extremely happy when I turned my phone on tonight and saw that my best friend, Ugly, had texted me apologizing for being a jerk last night. Now tomorrow morning he leaves for Ocean City, Maryland to practice with one of the top collegiate rugby teams, Salisbury.
It’s also rare for my friends to be honest about what’s really going on in their lives and what not, so it came to my surprise when he started to tell me he was nervous and worried about tomorrow. Josh (Ugly) is one of the best rugby players I know and not only that, but he’s also a beast. He’s a giant and could easily play for any team he wanted if he tried to. Hell, this past championship game he tackled a guy with his face and the guy is the one who got taken off the field.
It’s tough to get time off from a job you just started, especially when you’re one of two people who work in that position. So to “help a brotha out” I am returning to the Shamrock for one night only tomorrow on my only day off this week so he can go down to Maryland. That may sound like it’s a drag, but I’m so excited to work at the Sham again, it’s been too long. I miss that place and it’ll hopefully keep me in a good mood.
Anywho, I wish Ugly the best of luck tomorrow and Friday. Fuck yeah rugby.
