Jack woke up with a huge hangover from his company's Christmas party. Jack was not normally a drinker, but the drinks didn't taste like alcohol at all. 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 saw were a couple of aspirin next to a glass of water on the side table. Next to them was a single red rose. He sat up and saw his clothes in front of him, clean and pressed. He looked around the room and saw that it was spotlessly clean. He took the aspirins and cringed when he saw a black eye staring back at him in the mirror. Then he noticed a small handwritten note written in red with little hearts and a kiss from his wife with 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 stumbled into the kitchen where, sure enough, a hot breakfast and steaming hot coffee were waiting for him, along with the morning newspaper. His son is also at the table, eating some of the breakfast. Jack asked, "Son, what happened last night?"
"Well, you came home last night around 3 AM or so, drunk and out of your mind. You fell over the coffee table and broke it, puked in the hallway, and got that black eye when you ran into the door."
Confused, Jack asked, "So why is everything in such perfect order?"
His son answered, "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!"
