Do you prefer classic Disney movies (think The Little Mermaid, Cinderella, and Beauty and the Beast) or more current favorites (Frozen, Tangled, Brave)?
the classics
Have you ever told someone Santa is not real?
never!
Imagine you can instantly learn any language. Which would you choose?
the Gaelic - so beautiful
Pull out your phone; what is your most used emoji?
surprised to see that it's the sideways LOL
What did you want to be when you grew up?
pretty
What food will you never eat?
whelks
What is something you did at work that no one noticed?
I've completely reorganized the department in subtle ways to make it function more like an office and less like a throwback to the 1950s. Thank God nobody noticed or they'd have changed it back to "the way it's always been."
What is the earliest book you remember?
Fox in Socks
What is your earliest memory of Christmas?
gloves in a small box, from my maternal grandma. She always gave us something practical and a toy. The gloves were a big deal because the practical gift was almost always socks or underwear. They had nearly 30 grandchildren—it must have been a significant sacrifice to buy and wrap all those presents, to recall our ages and approximate sizes, to accumulate the toys and whatever we got when we were older. She died when I was in high school, and for several years by that point my pleasure gift was a book. She died the day after Christmas, in fact. It's always a bittersweet time.
What is your favorite holiday?
What is your least favorite part of working from home?
taking crap for "not being productive" and being threatened with return to the office, from my boss
Which superpower would you give to your arch enemy?
the ability to hear everyone's thoughts at once (except mine)
Would you rather have a pet sloth or a pet parrot?
sloth. Birds are not meant to be in cages. (Neither are sloths, but at least they're furry.)
