Id Like to Be Eight Again

Written by

A man was sitting on the side of the bed watching his wife, who was looking at herself in the mirror. Since her birthday was not far off, he asked her what she would like as a gift.

“I’d like to be eight again,” she said, still looking in the mirror.

On the morning of her birthday, he rose early, made her a bowl of Frosted Flakes, and then took her to Adventure World theme park. What a day! He put her on every ride in the park… the death slide, the wall of fear, the screaming roller coaster… just to name a few.

Five hours later, they staggered out of the theme park. Her head was reeling, and her stomach felt upside down. He then took her to McDonald’s where he ordered her a Happy Meal with extra fries and a chocolate milkshake.

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 fell into bed, exhausted.

He leaned over his wife with a big smile, “What was it like to be eight again?”

She opened her eyes, and her expression suddenly changed.

“I meant my dress size, you idiot!”

Moral of the story: Even when a man is listening, he’s going to get it wrong.
