To Be Six Again………….
One morning
a man noticed his
wife looking at herself very intently in the hall mirror. She seemed to be a
little downhearted so in
an effort to cheer her up he said to her, “If you could have whatever you
wanted, what would you like at this very moment?”
The woman
never
hesitated….she said “I’d like to be six again!”
He looked
at her and smiled
and said, “I can help you be that…we will start the first thing in the
morning.”
Early the
next morning he
arose, made her a big bowl of Lucky Charms, packed a lunch of peanut butter and
jelly and made a jug of cherry kool-aid.
Then
he put her in the car
and drove to Six Flags theme park, where he put her on every ride in the park,
including the Death Slide, the Wall of Fear, the Screaming Monster Roller
Coaster and every other ride imaginable.
Six hours later they staggered out of the park. Her head was reeling
and her stomach was
whirling.
He then
took her to McDonalds
where he bought her a happy meal, large fries and a chocolate shake.
Then he
took her to a movie
where he bought her popcorn, a soda pop and her favorite candy.
Finally
he drove her home,
carried her into the house and laid her exhausted body down on the bed.
Several
hours later, she
opened her eyes, still exhausted.
He leaned
over her, with a
big smile, and said lovingly, “Well dear, how did it feel to be six again?”
She looked
at him oddly for a
moment and then said, “I meant my dress size you idiot!”
The moral
of this story is,
even when men listen, they still get it wrong!
(And, if
a woman knew how to
explain herself, she would not be disappointed so often)
