A Husband Tries To Give His Wife A Birthday To Remember

[2Paw]

The following story is good for a laugh. While it pokes fun at men, it does illustrate how easily words can be misunderstood. This husband deserves 5 stars for being a loving partner, and any wife would be lucky to have him.
A man was sitting on the edge of the bed, watching his wife, who was looking at herself in the mirror. Since her birthday was not far off, he asked what she'd like to have for her birthday.
"I'd like to be eight again..." she replied, still looking in the mirror.
On the morning of her birthday, he woke up early, made her a nice big bowl of Coco Pops, and then took her to Adventure World. What a day! He put her on every ride in the park; the Death Slide, the Wall of Fear, the Screaming Roller Coaster, everything there was.
Five hours later, they staggered out of the theme park. Her head was reeling and her stomach felt upside down. He took her to a McDonald's where he ordered her a Happy Meal with extra fries and a chocolate shake.
Then it was off to a movie with popcorn, a soda pop and her favorite candy, M&M's. What a fabulous adventure!
Finally she wobbled home with her husband and collapsed into bed, exhausted.
He leaned over his wife with a big smile and lovingly asked, "Well dear, what was it like being eight again?"
Her eyes slowly opened and her expression suddenly changed.
I meant my dress size, you idiot."
The moral of the story: Even when a man is listening, he is gonna get it wrong.

I thought she meant something else, but your spelling was wrong.

Glad I wasn't the only one going that way! ! That reminds me of the girl that was eight before she was seven.
