Can't afford to pay rent. Please help if you can! Thank You!
I would never normally ask this of my friends. But unfortunately, I've really got no options left.

Basically I can't afford to survive right now. I am unemployed, and I just had my car towed. We used the last of our funds to get the car back today. But now we are screwed because my girlfriend Cat also owes a couple grand to pay for her recent root canal. We were making due ok, but now with the tow fees, child support payments, rent, bills, and other unexpected expenses we are well and truly screwed.

So if you can afford it, and can find it in your heart to help friends in need, we have set up a chipin event. Anything helps from .50 cents to $50.

Thank you so much,

Josh, Cat, & the kitties (Ramses, Banshee, Kiki, and LeeLoo)

From the widget, it looks like you've raised the full amount already. Is that the case, or do you need any more?

Well, we have raised enough to cover the expenses of the towing. But we still have the dental payments which Cat has been stressing herself out about for the past month. Like I said though, we only want people to help out if they can, and want to. But yeah I was really surprised how much we were able to raise already!

I know the feeling. Having all four of my wisdom teeth out at the same time was bad enough without worrying about how to finance it, and my fiancée's trying to raise money to get into a better place at the moment (which ironically has less rent than she's currently paying, if she only had the deposit money for it).

I've given what I can, in any case. Call it a thank you for making good music and compilations, being a generally nifty person and giving our world a soundtrack ;-)

you broke a thousand in a day... and I know sadly with all the crap going on that is only a drop in the bucket.
I hope this keeps coming, and Karma is paying you back for not being there at other times and things get better.

I am advancing you a booking fee for a live show at a later date. Likely in Dallas, but possibly somewhere else. We'll work the details out later.

I appreciate your work. A lot.

I put a link to this in my Twitter stream, as well. I don't have a ton of followers, but maybe it will help a bit.

Thank you. Any help is appreciated. Though what we've been able to raise in just a day and a half has been phenomenal.

Posted it in my LJ too. I know SF rents are atrocious as well as root canals. I may have to get a crown soon myself, and I am NOT looking forward to trying to fund that! *rolls eyes*
