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!"
The hours passed and the margaritas went down way too easy.
Around 3 AM, a bit blitzed, 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 (even when totally smashed), in order to escape a possible conflict with him.
The next morning my husband asked me what time I got in, and I told him "midnight".
He didn't seem disturbed at all. (Whew! Got away with that one!).
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, crap," cuckooed 4 more times, cleared its throat,
cuckooed another 3 times, giggled, cuckooed twice more, and then tripped over the cat and farted."
