Making Sure

Existence was so tranquil and peaceful for the young couple of Adam and Eve, like straight out of a story book, until one unfortunate day when Adam showed up one hour late for supper. By the time Adam finally came home Eve was a nervous wreck, and her imagination was working overtime. As soon as Adam showed up, Eve questioned, “Honey, what happened? Why are you home so late?” With a wave of the hand, Adam responded, “Oh I’m sorry! I just lost track of the time.”

Now Eve didn’t have a Mother or girlfriend around to calm her fears, after all it was just her and her Husband and despite Adam’s convincing act her overactive imagination could not be calmed. That night after two hours of restlessly turning in her bed, enough was enough. Suddenly, Adam jumped out of bed and hollered “WHAT IN THE WORLD ARE YOU DOING?” Eve screamed right back, “YOU KNOW DARN WELL WHAT I’M DOING. NOW YOU BETTER LAY STILL RIGHT NOW, AND LET ME FINISH COUNTING THOSE RIBS!”
