To Be 6 Again

A man was sitting on the edge of the bed, observing his wife looking at herself in the mirror.  Since her birthday was not far off he asked her want she'd like to have for a gift.  

"Id like to be six again" was the reply, still looking in the mirror.

On the morning of her birthday, he arose early, made her a nice big bowl of Lucky Charms, then took her to Six Flags theme park.  What a day!  He put her on every ride in the park; the Death Slide, the Wall of Fear, the Screaming Monster 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.

Then he took her to McDonalds for dinner where he ordered her a Happy Meal with extra fried and a chocolate shake.

After that it was a movie, popcorn, soda and her favorite candy: M&Ms.  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 to be 6 again?"

Her eyes slowly opened and her expressing suddenly changed.  "I meant my dress size, you idiot!"

Moral of the Story:  Even when a man is listening he sometimes gets it wrong.  We gotta love them anyway.
