I had what I hope was a pretty successful meeting with a new local business owner last night. She just recently opened shop and needs some logo/branding branding work, and she's looking for a very cool style that'd be a nice departure from my generally clean-and-modern style. She can't pay up-front, so I'd just be working with her when I don't have paid work, but she's willing to trade goods, and cash further down the line.
There *is* a part of me that feels like it's dumb to be working for trade, but I think I'm willing to help out the occasional small business owner, *if* the project sounds fun, *and* I don't have anything else to work on, *AND* they're easy to get along with. She was totally easygoing, and actually described me as, "the only sane person [she's] met with so far," so I think we'll get on well. :) Also, I rarely ever buy jewelry, because even the non-glitzy stuff I'd enjoy wearing is so darned expensive, if it's of any real quality, so the trading of goods would actually be pretty cool.
Still, I'm definitely not going to kill myself over it, as I tend to with paid stuff, heh.
I also went to a free weight management group yesterday, offered by a local guy who's doing it as a public service project. It's a lot different than anything I've ever tried before, for sure.
( A support group? Oy. )
