A Funny Story

An 80 year old couple were having problems remembering things,
so they decided to go to their doctor to get checked out to make
sure nothing was wrong with them. When they arrived at the doctor's,
they explained to the doctor about the problems they were having
with their memory. After checking the couple out, the doctor tells
them that they were physically okay but might want to start writing
things down and make notes to help them remember things. The couple
thanked the doctor and left.

Later that night while watching TV, the old man got up from his
chair and his wife asks, "Where are you going?" He replies,
"To the kitchen." She asks, "Will you get me a bowl of ice cream?"
He replies, "Sure." She then asks him, "Don't you think you
should write it down so you can remember it?" He says, "No, I
can remember that." She then says, "Well I also would like some
strawberries on top. You had better write that down cause I know
you'll forget that." Hey says, "I can remember that, you want a
bowl of ice cream with strawberries." She replies, "Well I also
would like whip cream on top. I know you will forget that so you
better write it down." With irritation in his voice, he says,
"I don't need to write that down I can remember that." He then
fumes into the kitchen.

After about 20 minutes he returns from the kitchen and hands her
a plate of bacon and eggs. She stares at the plate for a moment
and says, "You forgot my toast."
