The Happy Hangover



 Jack wakes up with a huge hangover after attending his company's Christmas Party. 
Jack is not normally a drinker, but the drinks didn't taste like alcohol at all. 
He had vague memories of being very loud and screaming at his wife. 
This did NOT promise to be a good morning.

Jack had to force 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 and sees his clothing in front of him, all clean and pressed. 
He looks around the room and sees that it is in perfect order, spotlessly clean.  

He takes the aspirins and cringes when he sees a huge black eye staring back at 
him in the bathroom mirror.

Then he notices a note hanging on the corner of the mirror written in red with little 
hearts on it and a kiss mark from his wife in lipstick: "Honey, breakfast is on the stove, 
I left early to get groceries to make your favorite dinner tonight. I love you, darling! 
Love, Jillian

He stumbles into the kitchen and sure enough, there is a hot breakfast, steaming 
hot coffee, and the morning newspaper all waiting for him. His son is also at the table, 
eating. Jack asks, "Son... what happened last night?" 

"Well," said the son, thoughtfully, "you came home after 3 in the morning, drunk 
and out of your mind. You fell over the coffee table and broke it, and then you puked 
in the hallway, and got that black eye when you ran into the door." 

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

His son replies, "I don't know. The only other thing I remember is mom dragging you 
to the bedroom, and when she tried to take your pants off, you screamed
'Leave me alone, I'm married!'"
