A man was just waking up from anesthesia after surgery, and his
wife was sitting by his side. His eyes fluttered open and he said:
"You're beautiful." Then he fell asleep again. His wife had never
heard him say that, so she stayed by his side.
A few minutes later, his eyes fluttered open and he said: "You're
cute!" The wife was disappointed because instead of "beautiful," it
was now "cute."
She said: "What happened to 'beautiful'?"
The man replied: "The drugs are wearing off!"
