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 ticked off at all. Whew! Got away with that. Then he said, "We need a new cuckoo clock." When I asked him why?, he said, "Well, last night our clock cuckooed 3 times, then said, 'Oh, SHIT', 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."
