We would gladly have floated you some dosh for foods and such!
Oh, I never doubted for a moment that if I asked, my friends would come through for me. But I didn't want to be rescued from that quarter, either. I wanted to keep telling myself, "Look, your life sucks right now, and it will continue to suck until you get off your ass and do something about it."
Especially since I love your web design and need a site built and it wouldn't have been unreasonable to send it as a consultation fee :D
Well, that's a different matter entirely -- that'd be honest work. *nod* Give me a couple of weeks to see how quickly I settle into the new job and how much free time it leaves me, and then let me know if you still need someone to work on a site for you or not.
Hurrah for save-your-ass luck!
.... Not that I want to jump on your case for saying that or anything, but I need to remember for my own sake that it had less to do with "luck" and more to do with continuing to get out there and make the effort. Otherwise, next time, I'll be waiting for luck to save me again. But thank you!
