We were really busy last night, which is good. After all, I don't think my landlord would accept my working for him to pay off my rent, especially after the inevitable flaws in my work shine through. Let's say that I'm much better with a shaker in my mitts than I am with a hammer.
I did get to have a little fun at the unwitting expense of some of the guests, though. It's a good time when some inept (and I'm being very charitable) people try to collaborate on the crossword.
"What's a word for 'like jambalaya'? Okra... no. Stewy!"

Me: *grinning, shaking head*
You get the idea. It went on like this for a while. I hope these folks are better in what they do in real life. They must be -- otherwise, they wouldn't have any money to pay for their bill.
