Jack had to force himself to open his eyes. The first thing he sees is a couple of aspirins next to a glass of water on the side table. And, next to them is a single red rose!
Jack sits up and sees his clothing in front of him, all clean and pressed. He takes the aspirins, cringes when he sees a huge black eye staring back at him in the bathroom mirror.
He stumbles to the kitchen. There is hot breakfast, coffee and the morning paper.
His son is sitting at the table eating. Jack asks, “Son, what happened last night?”
“Well, you came home after 3 AM, drunk out of your mind. You fell over the coffee table and broke it, then you puked in the hallway, and got that black eye when you ran into the door.”
Confused, Jack asked his son, “So why did your mother leave me a rose and a love note, and put breakfast is on the table for me?”
His son replies, “Oh THAT! Mom dragged you into the bedroom, and when she tried to take your pants off, you screamed, “Leave me alone, lady, I’m married!”
