A Night Out With The Girls....
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 margaritas went down WAY too easy.>
Around 3 a.m., a bit loaded, 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 my husband would probably wake up, I cuckooed another 9 times.
I was really proud of myself for coming up with such a quick-witted solution
in order to escape a possible conflict with him. (Even when totally
smashed)...3 cuckoos plus 9 cuckoos totals 12 cuckoos = MIDNITE.
The next morning my husband asked me what time I got in, and I told him
"Midnight"!. He didn't seem pissed off 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 it's throat,
cuckooed another 3 times, giggled, cuckooed twice more, and then tripped over the coffee table and farted."
