What does your score mean?
Though you're not extremely spontaneous, you have a healthy dose of impulsivity surging through your veins. You cut loose and break out of tired old routines from time to time, but have your limits; you might, for example, throw all caution to the wind and spend the evening with a good-looking stranger, but would draw the line at jetting off with them to a deserted island for an entire week. Essentially, you use your head…without shutting the doors to the spur of the moment opportunities life can throw on your plate. Your attitude allows you to honor your responsibilities and steer clear of danger, while still having the occasional adventure. Just remember to keep that healthy balance and you'll lead a well-rounded life!

Your score = 70
No one could ever accuse you of being stuck in a rut - you're the personification of spontaneity! You like to live your life without set, fixed routines, preferring to leave things wide open for adventure and wild and crazy fun. You'd be the first to suggest a last minute party, and likely get your friends pumped up about the idea with your enthusiasm. You wouldn't hesitate to postpone a stuffy business meeting for a spur of the moment day at the beach, or take a detour on a road trip to check out a roadside attraction. This spontaneous, fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants attitude makes you a blast to be around - there's never a dull moment! One warning, however: certain responsibilities (like jobs, for example) just don't give the freedom to drop everything to suit your adventurous moods. As long as you can tame your free spirit when necessary and maintain balance between impulsiveness and dependability, you can have your cake and eat it too!
And skinny dipping is sooo much fun!

I got a 70, too.
I'm an amazingly spontaneous person, but I neve get the opportunity to *be* spontaneous.
It's hard to be spontaneous when there's no one around and no car andd you're underage and you don't have any money or anywhere to go anywhere with.

deep-delving, dark, deliberate you would say
browsing on spire and bogland; but today
our sky-blue slates are steaming in the sun,
our yachts tinkling and dancing in the bay
like racehorses. We contemplate at last
shining windows, a future forbidden to no one.

Posted: 8/3/06 at 3:58pmI love doing things spontaneously, alas, usually I have something planned that won't allow for it. I'm very happy when it does occur.

Will someone really conservative please take this test so I don't have to be the Robbie Routine of the boards?
Dammit, if I were just willing to pee on the side of the road, I'd probably at least be tied with Dottie.
eta: Yay! Thanks, cookie!

Calvin, when its pouring rain, you just drank a bunch of water and you're heading to P-town during the off season (meaning, nothing is open), you'll have no choice (believe me)!!!

The first time I ever drove in Jersey, I really had to pee as I crossed over from Delaware. I looked at my directions and saw I only needed to go to Exit 12 on the New Jersey Turnpike. "Ah, I can hold it for 12 miles," I thought. I was the last car in a caravan, so I couldn't really pull over at any rest stops.
An hour later, when we finally reached exit 12, I thought I was going to die.

Oh Calvin, you and I should travel together.

Posted: 8/3/06 at 4:23pmOh Calvin, even I answered the pull off the side of the road and pee, with a yes!

Once, in the 6th grade, I was stuck on a 3 hour bus ride coming back from a band trip.
I had to pee.
The director wouldn't stop.
I peed in a cup.

Posted: 8/3/06 at 4:48pmFiction writer, I'm thinking technically then you could probably answer yes to question #6!
#24re: How spontaneous are you?
Posted: 8/3/06 at 4:48pmIf it were a really remote situation, I would do it. But this said the exit is 10 minutes away. I can withstand anything for 10 minutes. Except Hot Feet.
