I played touch football not too long ago.

Would you ever like to do something on your bucket list today??

I would. (It's either dance lessons or riding a horse.)

Yes, I need a haircut as it is.

Small ones, maybe. I love Great Whites but I would probably be too nervous to enjoy hanging with that crowd. It's moot, though, because I am terrible in the water (loving sharks doesn't mean you can swim like one).

WYE take a space tourism trip to the ISS if you had the money to burn?

WYE live on Mars if it became available and affordable and folks had been living there already long enough that you knew it was safe??

If it was an established settlement and there was a solid, reliable transport system to get there, sure. Earth is getting boring. 😋

EDIT: Did that wrong

WYE let one of your stories be made into a movie/TV Show?

What do you think? I certainly would. It's long enough! 🤣

WYE let someone alter your story drastically to get it on screen?

How drastically are we talking? If it misses the whole point of the story or completely alters a character, probably not. If it is another road to the same destination, so to speak, then go for it.

WYE travel a distance just to see a favorite performer (musical, stage, whatever)?

Possibly, if I could include it in a larger itinerary. I wanted to see Nightwish in Munich but I couldn't work it to the dates I was there. To rub salt into the wound, they were in London whilst I was in Munich!

WYE swim in a nearly frozen lake?

I can barely swim in normal temperatures so big "nope" on that.

I’ve been skinny dipping but it’s been a few years now lol I might be getting boring

WYE go swimming in someone’s pool without asking them? Like a pool in the neighborhood and you’ve never met the owners 😳😆

Giving the fencing requirements for pools around here, that would be quite a feat, worthy of Ocean's Eleven. But no, trespassing ain't my thing.

WYE ask a neighbour you don't otherwise know if you could use their pool?

No, not ever. I would consider that to be disrespectful.

WYE pee in a public pool?

Well, it would be preferable to peeing on the deck, I guess. 😲🤣 But only if I couldn't hold it any longer (which, admittedly, is probably becoming more of an issue😳).

WYE consider taking up acting?

Nope, I would get too embarrassed. I'm quite an introvert.

WYE pester an actor that you recognised in a public place. (Assuming it was not some kind of planned event.)

Probably not. I once stood quietly and politely in line behind a famous Canadian musician at a comic store in Toronto.

WYE sing karaoke in a bar full of strangers?

No. Too polite again. Might slip out the back if I wasn't getting the laughs, but not one to heckle. (And I'm with you on karaoke. I frequently joke about how bad my singing voice is.)

Not likely. I would have to do it carefully given my wonky glucose levels.

Well, I have done it a few times over the years. Kind of goes with the territory when you live in Ontario. That said, if I had a choice...nope.

WYE give up your car and just use bicycles and transit?

Nope. Not unless I have no choice. It is too hilly where I live for a bicycle, and I travel when I want to, not when a busload of other people turns up. A bus ride to town for two would cost me almost £10. My petrol plus parking costs are little more than £1. (I could rant on and on on this subject, but I won't. 🤣)
