I've been bedridden for the last 10 months, unable to work as I try to get a surgeon and insurance lined up for my operation to let me work again.
If you could send a couple dollars, it'd really help. Time isn't on my side here, and waiting is very expensive.

Every tech update now is like: "Great news, the word processor you've relied on for twenty years has learned to juggle! Is it good at it? No! Does it help in any way? Of course not! Has it made it insufferable to use? Oh, absolutely."

There's special punishment in being someone who finds self-promotion not just difficult as a concept but also painful. "Oh, just sell yourself and be super confident at what you do!"
Easy.
Anyway, I *am* great at what I do, so do you know anyone who needs my help?
