01. Bought everyone in the pub a drink? No.

22. Asked out a stranger? Basically, yes. It's not like I just walked up to a total stranger and asked them out, but I met this guy maybe three times in the process of him fixing my computer, so we weren't exactly buds or anything.

23. Screamed as loudly as you possibly can? Yes. See, when I was a kid I had Kirsten, the American Girl doll, you know? And one day her head fell off. Nearly gave my mother a heart attack.

24. Held a lamb? No.

31. Pretended to be a superhero? Uh, in middle school, my friends and I all had Batman code names, and I was Robin. Not for any reason, really, which in retrospect makes me think we were kinda strange.

32. Sang karaoke? Yep. "Love Shack," baby.

33. Done something you should regret, but don't regret it? Possibly. I can't think of anything off the top of my head, but that sounds like me. :)

44. Performed on stage? Yes. Five-year drama club veteran.

45. Been to Las Vegas? Yes, but I was a teenager, so it was less fun.

56. Survived an accident that you shouldn't have survived? No.

57. Lost over 100 pounds? No.

58. Broken someone's heart? Yes. Weirdly, he broke up with me, and then got all upset about it when I wouldn't take him back. But he was kinda crazy (read: obsessive) anyway, so...

59. Killed a human being? No.

60. Had a snake as a pet? No.

61. Hiked to the bottom of the Grand Canyon? No. Flew through it in one of those little rickety airplanes, though, and also rafted down the Colorado River.

62. Slept for more than 30 hours over the course of 48 hours? No, but that sounds like heaven.
