Amen. > God, in his infinite wisdom, granted the man's wish. > The next morning, sure enough, the man awoke as a woman. > He arose, cooked breakfast for his mate, awakened the kids, set out >their school clothes, fed them breakfast, packed their lunches, drove them >to school, came home and picked up the dry cleaning, took it to the >cleaners and stopped at the bank to make a deposit, went grocery shopping, >then drove home to put away the groceries, paid the bills and balanced the >cheque book. He cleaned the cat's litter box and bathed the dog. Then it >was already 1 P.M. and he hurried to make the beds, do the laundry, vacuum, >dust, and sweep and mop the kitchen floor. > > Ran to the school to pick up the kids and got into an argument with >them on the way home. > > Set out milk and cookies and got the kids organized to do their >homework, then set up the ironing board and watched TV while he did the >ironing. > > At 4:30 he began peeling potatoes and washing vegetables for salad, >breaded the pork chops and snapped fresh beans for supper. > > > After supper, he cleaned the kitchen, ran the dishwasher, folded >laundry, bathed the kids, and put them to bed. > > > .At 9 P.M. he was exhausted and, though his daily chores weren't >finished, he went to bed where he was expected to make love, which he >managed to get through without complaint. > > > > > The next morning, he awoke and immediately knelt by the bed and >said: Lord, I don't know what I was thinking. I was so wrong to envy my >wife's being able to stay home all day. Please, oh please, let us trade >back." > > The Lord, in his infinite wisdom, replied: "My son, I feel you have >learned your lesson and I will be happy to change things back to the way >they were." > > You'll just have to wait nine months, though. You got pregnant last >night."
