Oh, To Be 6 Again!

A man asked his wife what she'd like for Mother's Day. His wife replied, "I'd love to be six again. So, on Mother's Day morning, the husband got up early, made his wife a nice big bowl of Lucky Charms cereal, and then drove her to the local theme park. What a day! The husband had his wife ride the Death Slide, the Wall of Fear, the Screaming Monster Roller Coaster, and just about every other ride in the park. Five hours later, the wife staggered out of the theme park. Her head was reeling, and her stomach felt upside down. Then, the husband took his wife to McDonald's. Her loving husband ordered his wife a Happy Meal with extra fries, and a chocolate shake. After McDonald's, it was off to the latest Disney animation movie, where the husband treated his wife to a hot dog, soda pop, popcorn, and her favorite M& M's candy. What a fabulous adventure! At last, the husband and wife headed for home. Wobbling from the car, and up the stairs to their bedroom, the exhausted wife collapsed on their bed. Leaning over his precious wife with a big smile on his face, the husband lovingly asked, "Well Dear, what was it like being six again?" The wife's eyes slowly opened, her expression suddenly changed, and she said, "I meant my dress size, you jerk!" And the moral of the story is, "Even when a man is listening, he is gonna get it wrong."

Thanks PJ for the funny!

Not to cause an argument, but...

And the moral of the story is, "Even when a man is listening, he is gonna get it wrong."

... makes for a funny story, but a great commentary on how women often don't CLEARY communicate what is on their minds.

It also shows that men aren't as obsessed with their dress size as they are because that wasn't his first thought.

Just a quick commentary and rebuttal from a male point of view.

Right. Did you check out G's recent post about guy's rules?

1. Ask for what you want. Let us be clear on this one:
Subtle hints do not work! Strong hints do not work!
Obvious hints do not work! Just say it!

I do agree with this. I guess we women want to think that the men will use common sense in deciding what we want. All you have to do is read our minds. Duh !
