All that for four minutes?

I think those were Carlee's exact words when I told her the fight was gonna be two 2-minute rounds. Then I had to hear about how she trained for months but it was for a marathon and at least that took a few hours. I thought she'd be psyched about my doing something that lasts four minutes. I can't win.

I'd like to thank everybody for their support for the last couple of months and especially for their patience and understanding of Hungry Dave a.k.a. Asshole Dave. I weighed in the day of the fight at 175 which is about 15-20 pounds lighter than normal. I haven't taken a decent dump in months. After the fight I went out for a burrito and beers, then buffalo wings and beers, then I went home and drank all the beers in my refrigerator, ate a large salad bowl full of cereal and some leftover steak. There's a long story in here somewhere... blood... sweat... tears... mostly the other guy's... but I can't be asked to write it right now.

I also posted one of the videos to the Facebook. Feel free to share... I know there are a lot of people out there who would like to vicariously punch me in the face.

I have to say that hitting someone with intent is a unique experience. I recommend it. Although I kind of feel badly about it because it turns out that Anthony is a really nice guy. Now all I have left is the gig with the band and I can take the rest of the year off.

Take 'er easy,
Dave
