Chore Payments

"Chore Payments"

The homeowner got into his grubbiest clothes
on Saturday morning and set about all the
chores he'd been putting off for weeks.

He'd cleaned the garage, pruned the hedge,
and was halfway through mowing the lawn
when a woman pulled up in the driveway and
yelled out her window, "Say, what do you get for yard work?"

The fellow thought for a minute, then answered,
"The lady who lives here lets me sleep with her."
