Apology

While brushing my teeth yesterday morning, I thought about a day, many years ago, when I had to apologize to my wife.  I could not recall details of what happened—the exact infraction requiring me to apologize.  But I recalled my apology: “Honey,” I said, “I was only doing what you told me to do instead of what you meant.”

We both ended up laughing like crazy.
