beggars at the feast

i think i've had seven different restarts on this post. i tried writing it in Word, as if forcing myself to capitalize would endear me to.... anyone. (by the way, i apologize if my lack of capitalization, or infrequent capitalization, bothers you.)

it just... hurts my pride to do this. i don't know what else to do, but i thought maybe this would be a good start.

i'm morghan. i'm currently drowning.
at the moment, i'm $1000 in the red in my bank account. i have a car that needs a new motor and is currently being held at the shop until i can come up with $1500 to replace it, and a job that is getting into jeopardy because i can't always depend on a ride. i'm narcoleptic, and can't afford the two medicines i need to keep going (xyrem for nights at $60, nuvigil for days at $100)--- i've cut down to half doses to stretch as far as i can, but it'll run out in the next week or so. i'm having trouble coming up with the money for my rent, and the only thing saving me from getting kicked out is that i'm splitting the rent with my brother and mother.

i'm trying to keep my job, which i only got in february. i'm still in a probationary period and could lose my job by the start of september if i miss any days for lack of my car. the mechanic's willing to work with me, but it's....

in short, i need to raise like... $2000. just a little something to get me out of the hole and some of the money for my car. to get me back on an even keel. i know everyone has rough times, but i feel like it's all going haywire.

so, i thought i'd....... i'm selling myself. lol

i have an etsy store that i'll be updating with hats, scarves... things i crochet. feel free to check it out.

i would sell the things i bake there as well, but it's easier to sell them via google. i'll make anything within reason, as well. :D

i also write. most of my writing is found at shadows_of, and if you commission me, i'll write whatever you like. i can't put a price on it because it's more like whatever you think it's worth.
but i'll stick this PayPal donation button on my writing so that, in case you take the notion, you can make a contribution for the work.

i feel liike i should be suffering through something bigger than suddenly finding myself broke, with a broken car and a job that may fire me by the end of next month if i don't prove myself 100% to them. if you can help, i'd greatly appreciate it.
