Two weeks ago was my 45th birthday and I wasn't
feeling too good that morning. I went to breakfast
knowing my wife would be pleasant and say, "Happy
Birthday!", and probably have a present for me. As it
turned out, she didn't even say good morning, let
alone any Happy birthday. I thought, well, that's
wives for you, the children will remember.. The
children came in to breakfast and didn't say a word.
So when I left as I
walked into my office, my secretary Janet said, "Good
morning, "Happy Birthday". And I felt a little better
that someone had remembered. I worked until noon, then
Janet knocked on my door and said, "You know, it's
such a beautiful day outside, and it's your birthday,
let's go to lunch, just you and me." I said, "By
George, that's the greatest thing I've heard all day.
Let's go!" We went to lunch. We didn't go where we
normally go; insted we went out to a private little
place. We had two martinis and enjoyed lunch
tremendously. On the way back to the office, she said,
"You know, it's such a beautiful day. We don't need to
go back to the office, do we?" I said, "No, I guess not." She said, "Let's go to my apartment." After
arriving at her apartment she said, "Boss, if you
don't mind, I think I'll go into the bedroom and slip into something more comfortable" "Sure!", I excitedly replied. She went into the bedroom and, in about six minutes, she came out carrying a huge birthday cake ----- followed by my wife, children, and dozens of our friends, all singing Happy Birthday. And I just sat there ---- on the couch ---- naked.
