An E-Mail Forward that made me laugh

I got this e-mail forward from a friend who hates forwards almost as much as I do. So when I saw it in my inbox I knew it had to be a good one...

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 didn't even remember how he got home from the party.

As bad as he was feeling, he wondered if he did something wrong. 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. So is the rest of the house. He takes the aspirins, cringes when he sees a huge black eye staring back at him from 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 you your favorite dinner tonight. I love you, darling! Love, Jillian'

He stumbles to the kitchen and sure enough, there is hot breakfast, steaming hot coffee and the morning newspaper. His son is also at the table, eating.

Jack asks, 'Son... What happened last night?' 'Well Dad, you came home after 3 A.M., 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, 'Oh THAT!... Mom dragged you to the bedroom, and when she tried to take your pants off, you screamed,

'LEAVE ME ALONE, I'M MARRIED!!'

LOL That one truly is priceless!

You know the crazy thing about this whole bridesmaid/wedding ordeal is that two weeks ago I was told that because another bridesmaid is pregnant we were waiting a couple months (till after she had the baby) to go dress shopping and I had time to come up with the money. Then out of the blue last Sunday I got an email saying I had to get the dress "now" if I planned on being in the wedding. Really not fair to blindside a person that way, but oh well. I still have not heard back from her which doesn't necessarily mean anything but I think she'll probably just avoid me for a while.
