Adam was roaming around the Garden of Eden making up names
for all the animals that were there.  He also noticed that 
there were two kinds of each species - male and female. 
And he also noticed that most of the animals were mating
and seemed to be enjoying this very act.  So, he went to 
his special place and called out in a loud voice, "Hey, God!".
And a loud booming voice replied, "Yes, Adam".
Adam: "Hey, God - There's an awful lot of animals down here."
God: "Yes, Adam - I have created many species and I trust 
      you have not run out of names for then."
Adam: "No, that's not the problem.  But, I have noticed 
      that there are two kinds of each species."
God:  "Yes, Adam.  One kind is male and the other is female."
Adam: "Hey, God - why is there a male and a female of each 
       species ?"
God:  "So they can mate and procreate.  This will ensure
       the continuation of the species."
Adam: "Hey, God."
God:  (sigh) "Yes, Adam."
Adam: "Which am I?"
God:  "You, Adam, are a male."
Adam: "Hey, God, I've noticed that most of the animals are
       mating --- and they seem to be really enjoying
       themselves.  If it isn't too much trouble, do you
       think...maybe,....I could..."
God:  "All right, Adam.  The time has come for me to
       provide you with a mate.  Go lie down and when you
       have fallen asleep, I will create your mate."

So, Adam leaves his special place, finds a patch of soft 
grass under a tree, lies down, and falls asleep.   Some
time later he awakes (possibly due to a slight pain in his
side) and heads immediately to his special place.

Adam: "Hey, God."
God:  "Yes, Adam."
Adam: "Hey, God - did you remember to do what you promised ?"
God:  "Yes, Adam.  While you were sleeping I created for
       you a mate.  Her name is Eve.  You will find her in
       the bushes near the place where you were sleeping."

Adam rushes off to find Eve in the bushes.  A few minutes
later he is back at his special place, calling ...

Adam:  "Hey, God."
God:   "Yes, Adam."

Adam:  "Hey, God --- What's a headache ????"
