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 favourite 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 16 year old 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!!'
