Saturday Night Fights...at the McDonalds



There was a time that Saturday was fight night at the McDonald house. It was the time when much food was made (usually Gordy's goulash), snacks, soda and games or movies for the kids.

Today, I called to do the auto pay on the phone for our DISH network and one of the first prompts was 'press 1' for the Paquiao vs Marquez fight for tonight....for $60. Yes, I pressed 1. So it was going to be Gordy and I and I invited Jesse and Joe.

Then Gordy got some calls that some men are ill tonight and he was needed at church. That meant that Jesse went to drug test, and Joe is working until 10.

So here I sit - watching $60 of boxing, by myself, while Kimmie is in the other room watching the premiere of the latest Narnia movie on HBO. Yes, me and a small bowl of chips and salsa and a Coca-Cola...Good times, good times.
