Devon Needs To Pay Rent

My rent is due December 1st and, frankly, I just don't have it.  I've fallen on hard times in the last month or so. I suppose everyone needs a little help sometimes and my time is now.

My rent is $960.  My pay for November, I get paid at the end of the month each month, was $1000.  Between my other bills and just plain living (food, gas) for the month until my next paycheck, I'm asking for $900.

Additionally, I have to give the leasing office $200 to avoid eviction proceedings and that buys me time until the 10th to pay the rent.  So that fee will come out of the money I currently have.  It's very expensive to be broke.

I'm willing to eat that 200 since I was too proud to ask for help sooner, but it would be I don't know what to say here, nice? convenient? both seem terrible words to use when you're begging your friends for money. But if I meet this goal as soon as possible, it would be a great help to me.
