[Request] Broke until Friday, running low on gas, and haven't been able to work because of sickness, lunch would be amazing.

This is how my bank account has looked for 3 weeks now. To pay for gas lately I sold some old computer parts to friends, but I'm out of stuff to sell. I wasn't able to work for 1.5 weeks due to being sick (flu-like symptoms, I'm asthmatic), but I still had to drive to keep stocked on medicine and food. I commute 25-30 minutes each way Monday to Wednesday, and 40 minutes each way on Thursdays to go to class, so I go through a tank of gas per week. Add in costs of textbooks, and I'm just SoL right now. I have to make ~3/8 of a tank last until Friday, which is a total of almost 81 miles on a little under 6 gallons of fuel getting about 16mpg because of construction and stop and go traffic. I'm cutting it really close. I don't even know if I'll be able to pay it forward, as I've got a couple doctors appointments next week that I'm paying for myself, but I'll try.

Thanks
