I thought the punchline was going to be something like "My wife said she saw a fox on the way to work. I had to to explain to her what a mirror was. Such a ditzy blonde!"

That's cute

But why did the fox hang up on you?

This is a cool joke, because it has a paradox built in because it only works when written about in third person.
I mean maybe she actually said "on the way to work" but i think post people would say "on my way to work" which doesnt work.
-
I would totally say "I saw insert thing on the way to work today," and would have assumed that would be the natural way to say it, but now I'm questioning that
-
I saw a fox on one's way to work.
Actually, scratch that

You can always subtly rephrase it to make the joke in person. The first sentence of the following can actually be pretty broad.
W: "I saw a fox on my way to work!"
H: "Sorry, I didn't quite catch that. You saw a fox on the way to work?"
W: "Yes!"
H: "How did you know it was on its way to work?"
-
That degrades the quality of the joke quite a bit imo
