4) Created my own fully computer moderated PBEM game.
5) Won a marmoset.
6) Made more money DJing than working at my normal job.
7) Been published.

Academically, and a poem of mine was published in a poetry anthology.

I don't think webzines count, but some of my old horror stories were published there too...

I've also been interviewed for a national careers magazine.

In a poetry anthology? Very nice :) Always good to have one's creative side unleashed to the world.

[livejournal.com profile] musingsofallama foolishly accepted a bet from me "for a marmoset" and lost :)

You cheated, you knew where we were and lied to me that we were lost....

You accepted the bet, with the full marmoset related consequences!

1, 3, 7.

I worry at the ariel on 1 though; what kind of matching did you get? ;-)

It wasn't brilliant, our broadcasting radius was about 2 blocks ;)
