Wisdom From a Laugh 32

Something for the home
A wife was waiting angrily for her husband to return . It was already past midnight and the wife was fuming. Finally at about 2.30 a.m., she heard a noise at the door downstairs. She went out of the bedroom and stood at the top of the stairs. There was her husband, terribly drunk, trying to make his way up the stairs.
“Do you know what time it is?” the wife shouted.
“Relax, honey,” the husband answered. “I’m late because I went to buy something for the home.”
The wife softened a bit; she was filled with some anticipation. As she went down the stairs to meet her husband halfway, she said, “Darling, it was thoughtful of you to think of our home. What did you buy?”
“A carton of drinks…beer from France!”

Reflection
The words or action of a person who is drunk can make a situation grow from bad to worse as he is heedless and lacking in clear thinking.
