I've been there before too -- talking someone out of it, that is. The feeling you have afterward is really hard to put into words.. it's very unique.
By midnight I had finished a proof-of-concept page for my personal photography site (if you check it out, don't use a mobile device, and don't visit pages other than that -- they won't work correctly). Ten minutes later, I decided I wasn't happy with it.
Started from scratch, and I'm about halfway done right now.

Not the first time I've been someone's suicide crisis line. Never fails to kinda put things into perspective. Earlier yesterday I was annoyed because I tried flashing 2 different ROMs and bootlooped my phone. And AOKP doesn't have a 4.2 build ready. And the kids were being noisy.... and suddenly it just doesn't matter. The world comes to a screeching halt and suddenly all that matters is hearing a text notification and hoping you can get to a charger before the battery dies. She promised to text me today so I hope things are looking better for her :-\

Indeed. It's a mix of a crazy rush and immense sadness. A rush because you have held someone's life in your hands, sometimes rather literally. And sadness that people have to face such hardship that suicide is the only option. And some wonder and humility and thankfulness that they chose to reach out -- and that they chose YOU out of all the people they know... and even that doesn't describe it properly.
Anyway...

Looks good! I'm not a photog, but here's the site of a local guy who does (in my opinion) some mind-blowing stuff. Not sure I really like the navigation and layout of his site, but the content.... dang. Have a look if you like

Can't believe he's using flash for his site. A similar navigation concept has been featured in a couple CSS3 example lists. And as far as photography, if you like what he has on there, you're going to love the work I do once I start putting things up.
Though I suppose I need to find the time to actually take the photographs too... :-\

I had an extra rush of adrenaline that night.. my long-time friend's phone died, and I didn't exactly have much reassurance from her before it turned off. Easily worried as I am, I called a friend and got a local police escort. Took me 15 minutes to get there instead of 45.
Needless to say I permanently owe him one for that...

Good morning chatter let me say one thing first off great job dancing bass, I feel I have led a harder life than most from my childhood to middle school was an especially difficult time but never to the point were suicide was ever an option. I like to express my thoughts with lines that rhyme so here goes.
When the world is dark and no one is there and you feel like your heart has gone cold and no one cares turn around and see who's there,because whether you believe lt or not they certainly do care.
Not my best but hey I try,

NiN I used to write too. Sadly I don't have a lot of it anymore. Most of it died with my last computer (HD was unrecoverable) and the stuff on paper got lost in a move.... I managed to recover some of it though (stuff I'd posted to a blog or sent to friends). If I find anything good I'll post it
EDIT: I've actually got 2 sorta-decent ones. Let me know if you want to see them and I'll post them up
