Life How spontaneous are you?

**Rain Man** · 12:07 PM

Imagine that it's today, and that you have a friend or significant other.

Now imagine that the friend or significant other says to you, "Let's go to Vegas this weekend."

Now imagine there's no heaven, it's easy if you try. Wait, never mind on that one.

Anyway, back to the subject at hand. Assume the following:

- you have the funds to go
- you have no conflicting formal plans
- if you don't like Vegas, you can substitute some other destination that you like, such as the Smithsonian Museum or the Badlands or Dollywood if that still exists.

What is your immediate reaction to such an offer? Do you grin and jump at the chance? Are you horrified to get asked on three days' notice? Do you fall somewhere in between?

And as a bonus question, what's the most spontaneous thing you've ever done?

I don't want to take you by surprise, so I'll notify you that a poll is forthcoming.
