Good morning loyal subjects!!!

I’ve been feeling quite lazy lately. With all the free time on my hands I tend to revert back to my vampire-like living condition which is sleeping at 4-6 in the morning waking up late and falling back to sleep for a couple more hours only to wake up again at 10 in the evening.

Well, today was no exception. I got up at 9:30pm feeling very hungry because I had slept through dinner. AGAIN. I wasn’t worried because I distinctly remember Papa bringing home some treats that day.

Alas, when I got up to look for them they were no longer there. >.<

Feeling cranky and hungry, I trekked over to the other house to seek solace with my sister who I KNEW would be hungry as well (we work in tandem you see We wanted to order McDonald’s. Only one problem. We couldn’t afford to wake everyone else up in the house.

When I say we couldn’t afford to wake them up, I LITERALLY mean we couldn’t AFFORD it. You see, we have this thing. Food to us is best SHARED with everybody. We feel really bad if we couldn’t offer anything to other people especially if we’re the ones who just bought some snackage. And with our current budget constriction we really cannot buy enough for everybody.

So I thought about ordering and not ordering for some time. Pondered on the possible consequences like, what if someone wakes up? , what if the dog starts parking madly and the kids start waking up from their blissful slumber what if everybody saw us eating and we couldn’t offer anything to them???

It gave me a headache.

I was online at that time so I decided to Google McDonald’s Philippines to look at the menu (as if I didn’t already know it by heart). And like a sign from the heavens there it was, 8mcdo.com. Being the ever curious cat, I clicked on the link and found myself face to face with the order sheet.

Wow. The joys of online ordering. I even even specified that I wanted our Quarter Pounders plain!!! (no ketchup, onions or pickles) After a few clicks and a distinct reminder to NOT ring the doorbell, a McDonald’s representative called to confirm our order. She just made sure that our orders were set and reminded us of the total bill.

15 minutes after THAT, the delivery guy knocked on our door with crispy fries and the correct burgers in tow!!!

Isn’t that COOL??? I mean, I guess calling would have been simpler but I really could not trust my orders to them sometimes. They forget to put in some key details and we all know that it’s the details that mean so much to us consumers.

Needless to say I am ECSTATIC about this new McDonald’s service and this will only be the first of many times that I’m going to order through the website.

Thank you McDonald’s people for making it so easy for hungry royal cats like me to feast on your delicious burgers at ungodly hours!!!

Meow!
