A man and his wife were invited to a swanky masked Halloween Party.
The wife got a terrible headache and told her husband to go to the
party alone. He, being a devoted husband, protested, but she argued
and said she was going to take some aspirin and go to bed, and there
was no need of his good time being spoiled by not going. So he took
his costume and away he went. The wife, after sleeping soundly for one
hour, awakened without pain, and as it was still early, she decided to
go to the party after all. In as much as her husband did not know what
her costume was, she thought she would have some fun by watching her
husband to see how he acted when she was not with him. She joined the
party and soon spotted her husband cavorting around on the dance
floor, dancing with every nice girl he could, and copping a little
feel here and a little kiss there. His wife moved on up to him and
being a rather seductive woman herself, he left his partner high and
dry and devoted his time to the new stuff that had just arrived. She
let him go as far as he wished; naturally, since he was her husband.
Finally he whispered a little proposition in her ear and she agreed,
so off they went to one of the cars and had a little romp. Just before
unmasking at midnight, she slipped away and went home and put the
costume away and got into bed, wondering what kind of explanation he
would make for his behavior. She was sitting up reading when he came
in and asked what kind of a time he had. He said, "Oh, the same old
thing. You know I never have a good time when you're not there." Then
she asked, "Did you dance much?" He replied, "I'll tell you, I never
even danced one dance. When I got there, I met Pete, Bill Brown and
some other guys, so we went into the den and played poker all evening.
But I'll tell you... the guy I loaned my costume to sure had a real
good time!"
