I Must Really Be Sick
by Steve West on July 4, 2014
Recent conversation with Brenda while recuperating in hospital:
Me: Hey, wanna hear a joke I made up? I'm gonna tell my RN the next visit she makes.
Brenda: Of course.
Me: A stethoscope walks into a bar and the bartender starts, "Did you hear the one about..." (Stethoscope interrupting) Yes!
Brenda: (laughing) That's pretty good.
I can't recall the last time Brenda actually endorsed an idiotic joke I either thought of or merely thought funny. I might be on my deathbed and she's comforting me the best she knows how.

That, or you're delusional from the pain meds. If so, enjoy the ride!
We're glad you're recovering. :-)
