A man walked into a bar and ordered a vodka and Coke.<\/p>\n
He finished it quickly.<\/p>\n
Then ordered another.<\/p>\n
A few drinks later, the bartender noticed the man staring sadly into his glass.<\/p>\n
“Is everything all right, sir?”<\/p>\n
The man sighed.<\/p>\n
“I had a terrible argument with my wife.”<\/p>\n
The bartender looked sympathetic.<\/p>\n
“I’m sorry to hear that.”<\/p>\n
The man nodded.<\/p>\n
“She told me she won’t speak to me for six weeks.”<\/p>\n
The bartender frowned.<\/p>\n
“That must be difficult.”<\/p>\n
The man suddenly smiled.<\/p>\n
Then took another sip.<\/p>\n
The bartender stared at him.<\/p>\n
“Why are you smiling?”<\/p>\n
The man leaned closer and whispered:<\/p>\n
**”Today is the first day of week seven.”**<\/p>\n
The bartender nearly dropped his glass.<\/p>\n
“Wait… you’re celebrating?”<\/p>\n
The man grinned.<\/p>\n
“Exactly.”<\/p>\n
He raised his glass.<\/p>\n
“Sometimes the best thing a husband can receive after a terrible argument…”<\/p>\n
**”is six weeks of peace.”**<\/p>\n
The bartender laughed.<\/p>\n
“Then this one’s on me.”<\/p>\n
The man smiled.<\/p>\n
“Make it a double.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
