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.
Â
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!
Â
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!:
Â
"Honey, breakfast is on the stove, I left early to go get groceries to make you your
favorite dinner tonight. I love you, darling! Love, Jillian
Â
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."
Â
Confused he asked his son, "So, why is everything in such perfect order, so clean, I
have a rose, and breakfast is on the table waiting for me?"
Â
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, lady, I'm married!"
