What is the most impulsive thing you have ever done?

I am not an impulsive person by nature and neither is Clyde.  Even things that look spontaneous are usually thought through with me and well planned.  However one time Clyde and I did do something impulsive and it about ruined our family.  When the movie "Hook" came out, we asked Lynda Havard to go and pick up the girls from school and took off for San Antonio to go and see the matinee.  We knew the girls would be fine because the Havards' were like a second family and we had a great time.  However when we got home, they were furious with us!  In fact to this day - one of our daughters will not watch "Hook" because it causes such bad memories.  The funny thing is that now we could just up and do things impulsively - we still don't.  That is the one and only instance I can think of.  There were times we sprung things on our daughters but because of babysitters and other arrangements they had been thought out before.
