There was a lawyer who had just woken up from anesthesia after surgery, and his wife was sitting by his side. His eyes fluttered open and he said, “You’re beautiful!” and then he fell asleep again. His wife had never heard him say that, so she stayed by his side. A couple of minutes later, his eyes fluttered open again and he said, “You’re cute!” The wife was disappointed because instead of “beautiful,” he said “cute.” She asked, “What happened to ‘beautiful’?” His reply was, “The drugs are wearing off!”
