At Lunch

Shortly after we sat down to lunch, Kate looked across the table at me and said, “I’m sure glad I married you.” She paused for a moment. Then she said, “What’s your name?” I told her, and she asked, “What’s my name?”

As we prepared to leave, our server wished me a Happy Father’s Day. I said, “I get a double this year?” She and Kate looked puzzled. The server said, “What do you mean?” I explained that this year it was not only Father’s Day but is also my birthday. Kate’s expressed surprise. She covered her mouth with her hand. Then she looked at the server and said, “You gotta get me outa this.”
