91. Do you ever fall for «the wrong» guys?
I don't think so. At least, they didn't seem wrong at the time.

100. Who was the last person to do something extra special for you?
Alex's grandmother, who gave me cake fit for divine beings.
Also, I realize that about every entry I post is like I HAVEN'T BEEN ON HERE FOR SO LONG, HOW ARE YOU GUYS?!, and I'm sorry. It's just that, I lose. Anyway, I haven't been on here for so long! How are you guys?
I have not done very many things, but the list of things I did do includes losing at Trivial Pursuit, learning CPR, and having my mind blown by basically the most awesome movie of the twentieth century. Also, the twenty-first century. Also, EVER.
