"The Switch"
A man was complaining: "Oh Lord, please have mercy
on me, I work so hard, meantime my wife stays at home,
I would give anything if you would grant me one wish
'Switch me into my wife" She's got it easy at home I
want to teach her a lesson of how tough a man's life is.
As G~d was listening He felt sorry for this soul and
granted his wish.
Next morning the "new woman" wakes up at dawn,
makes lunch boxes, prepares breakfast, wakes up
the kids for school, puts a load of clothes in the washer,
takes the meat out of the freezer, drives the kids to
school, on his way back stops at the gas station,
cashes a check, pays the electricity and phone bills,
picks up some clothes from the cleaners, quickly
goes to the market. It was 1:00 o'clock already; he
made the beds, took the clothes out of the washer
and put another load in, he vacuumed the house,
made some rice, went to pick up the kids from school
and had an argument with the kids on the way home.
As soon as he got home he fed the kids, washed the
dirty dishes, he hung the damp clothes he had washed
on the chairs because it was raining outside. He helped
the kids with their homework, watched some TV while
he ironed some clothes, prepared dinner, he gave the
kids a bath and put them to sleep.
At 9:00 o'clock he was so tired and he went to bed.
Of course there were some more duties and somehow
he managed to get them done and finally fell asleep.
The next morning he prays to G~d once again:
"Oh Lord, what was I thinking when I asked you to grant
my wish, I can't take it anymore. I beg you please switch
me back to myself, please oh please."
Then he heard G~d's voice speaking to him, saying:
"Dear son, of course I'll switch you back into yourself
but; there's one minor detail, you'll have to wait 9 months . . .
Last night you got pregnant."
