i've seemed to have attracted some radical financial sympathy from several of my friends. bills are piling up, the lawsuit is taking longer to settle than i thought, my bon vivant appetite hasn't met reality check, and no one likes a parasitic pal-ly.
within the last few weeks, i've received a series of emails from a few friends attempting to offer me guidance. they started off innocently enough, but then became a little more controversial. instead of providing suggestions for extra design work or encouraging me to teach an exercise class in detroit, the following suggestions were given:
sell old possessions on ebay.
sell plasma.
sell dirty socks on ebay for people with feet fetishes.
apply to live with a rapper as his girlfriend for 6 months on a reality TV show (no sex is involved . . . supposably).
i can't decipher if it is a function of their perception of my desperateness, opinion of my moral fibers, or belief in my talent they think i have to offer to society. i guess i'll choose to take from these emails that my friends might see me as having top grade blood rather than qualifing for pre-prostitute school.
