The Good Husband
Jack wakes up with a huge hangover after attending his
company's
Christmas Party. Jack is not normally a drinker, but
the drinks didn't
taste like alcohol at all. He didn't even remember how
he got home from the party.
As bad as he was feeling, he wondered if he did
something wrong.
Jack had to force himself to open his eyes, and the
first thing he sees
is a couple of aspirins next to a glass of water on
the side table. And,
next to them, a single red rose! Jack sits up and sees
his clothing in front
of him, all clean and pressed. He looks around the
room and sees that
it is in perfect order, spotlessly clean. So is the
rest of the house. He
takes the aspirins, cringes when he sees a huge black
eye staring back
at him in the bathroom mirror. Then he notices a note
hanging on the corner of the
mirror written in red with little hearts on it and a
kiss mark from his wife in
lipstick:
"Honey, breakfast is on the stove, I left early to get
groceries to make
you your favorite dinner tonight. I love you, darling!
Love, Jillian"
He stumbles to the kitchen and sure enough, there is
hot breakfast,
steaming hot coffee and the morning newspaper. His son
is also at the
table, eating.
Jack asks, "Son... What happened last night?" "Well,
you came home after
3 A.M., drunk and out of your mind. You fell over the
coffee table and
broke it, and then you puked in the hallway, and got
that black eye when you
ran into the door.
Confused, he asked his son, "So, why is everything in
such perfect order
and so clean? I have a rose, and breakfast is on the
table waiting for
me??"
His son replies, "Oh THAT!... Mom dragged you to the
bedroom, and when
she tried to take your pants off, you screamed, "Leave
me alone, I'm
married!!"
