Boxing Gloves



Being the kind of kid who's been described as "a seven-foot tall, albino Bob Marley" by his friends and relatives, I've never really had any sort of desire to fight, or tackle, or body-slam, or full-nelson, or half-nelson, or arm bar, or punch, or kick...


Well, there's a lot of things.


And maybe that sounds a little girly, and I'm sure that if Hemingway was still around he'd punch me in the gut and call me a sissy, but it's just something that I've never really liked doing, though, at times, I do agree that some people do need to be kicked in the face. Hard.


So, when my friends got out the boxing gloves on Friday night, naturally, I wanted in, and I got punched in the chest so hard I felt it for a whole day.


I'm still sore two days later.


But it was fun to get the shit kicked out of me, even though I was getting the shit kicked out of me.


Does that make sense?


And I'd really like to do it again some time.


Maybe next time I'll actually hit someone.

  2. You hit me in the gut, why're you all lying and saying you didn't hit anyone?
