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 =MIDNIGHT.
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. 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 sh#@.",
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."
