Even When Men Listen We Still Get It Wrong

A man asked his wife what she'd like for Mother's Day.
'I'd love to be eight again' she replied.
On the morning of Mother's Day, he arose early and made her a bowl of Coco Pops and jammy toasties!
He took her to a theme park and put her on every ride in the park:
* The Death Slide
* The Wall of Fear
* The Screaming Monster Roller Coaster
Five hours later she staggered out of the theme park. Her head was reeling and her stomach felt upside down. Right away they went to a McDonalds where her loving husband ordered her a Happy Meal with extra fries and a refreshing chocolate milkshake.
Then it was off to the movies: the latest Kiddies three hour epic cartoon, a hot dog, popcorn, all the Coke she could drink, her favourite lolly and M&Ms!
What a fabulous adventure!
Finally she wobbled home with her husband and collapsed onto the bed exhausted. He leaned over his precious wife with a big smile and lovingly asked 'Well dear, what was it like being eight again?'
Her eyes slowly opened and her expression changed to one of total realisation: 'I meant my dress size, you idiot!"
The moral of this story: Even when a man is listening, he's still going get it wrong.
