omg. You need to enter more contests.
I hate to brag but I have won a lot of things......I guess I'm spoiled....
The coolest thing I won was a paid trip to LA, airfare, hotel, the works. I won a Taschen Schlaupelz contest...............and I got to meet some famous writers......It was a high I'll never quite forget.
Because it's late and i'm rambling.......i almost fucked up the entire trip by getting so drunk on my last night, that i woke up the next morning with a melon-sized bruise on my hip and chest, and I couldn't remember how I got it. I didn't want the trip to end....
