Greenback
I had just stepped in the door, having returned from a satisfying grocery shopping expedition, to find an email message in my inbox with the subject "your beautiful photo."
The message was from a design firm in New York. I was being asked if I was interested in letting them use my photo for an upcoming promotion they were working on, and what compensation I would suggest.
When I was a child and I got really excited I would put my arms together from my wrist to my elbow, scrunch my stomach muscles, and jab my elbows deep down into the euphoric stress created. A high pitched gasp would usually accompany this act.
I suggested that $125 US was fair and heard back within the hour. Damn. Next time I'll haggle.
