Smart Woman??
The other night I was invited out for a night with "the girls." I
told my husband that I would be home by midnight, "I promise!"
Well, the hours passed and the champagne was going down way too easy.
Around 3 a.m., drunk as a skunk, I headed for home. Just as I got in
the door, the cuckoo clock in the hall started up and cuckooed 3
times.
Quickly, realizing he'd probably wake up, I cuckooed another 9 times.
I was really proud of myself for coming up with such a quick-witted
solution (even when smashed), in order to escape a possible conflict
with him.
The next morning my husband asked me what time I got in, and I told
him 12:00. He didn't seem disturbed at all. Whew! Got away with that
one Then he said, "We need a new cuckoo clock. " When I asked him
why, he said, "Well, last night our clock cuckooed three times, then
said,
"oh shit," cuckooed 4 more times, cleared its throat, cuckooed
another 3 times, giggled, cuckooed twice more, and then tripped over
the cat and farted.
