Absinthe & Cookies (a bit bitter, a bit sweet)

Saying Just the Right Thing

How to come home drunk and still get a hot breakfast:

Jack wakes up with a huge hangover the night after a business function.

He forces himself to open his eyes and the first thing he sees is a
couple of aspirins next to a glass of water on the side table. And,
next to them, a single red rose!

Jack sits up in bed and sees his clothing in front of him, all clean
and pressed.

Jack looks around the room and sees that it is in perfect order,
spotlessly clean. So is the rest of the house. He takes the aspirins,
cringes when he sees a huge black eye staring back at him in the
bathroom mirror and notices a note on the table: "Honey, breakfast is
on the stove, I left early to go shopping - Love you!!"

He stumbles to the kitchen and sure enough, there is hot breakfast
and the morning newspaper. His son is also at the table, eating. Jack
asks, "Son...what happened l ast night?"

"Well, you came home after 3 am, drunk and out of your mind. You
broke the coffee table, puked in the hallway and got that black eye
when you ran into the door."

"So, why is everything in such perfect order, so clean, I have a rose
and breakfast is on the table waiting for me?"

His son replies, "Oh, THAT!...Mom dragged you to the bedroom and when
she tried to take your pants off, you screamed, "Leave me alone,
bitch, I'm married!!!".
