Girl’s Night Out


girl's night out

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 the problem.

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 crap,” cuckooed 4 more times, cleared its throat, cuckooed another 3 times, giggled, cuckooed twice more, and then tripped over the cat and farted.”
