IF YOU COULD INTERVENE DURING ANY HISTORIC EVENT, CHANGING HISTORY, WHAT WOULD IT BE? There are certainly serious events I considered but I wasn't sure where to start. So for a light-hearted response, I would hop back to 46 BCE (?) to alter the birth of the modern calendar so as to incorporate more weekend days.
WHAT'S YOUR BIGGEST WEAKNESS? I have to borrow the words of Michael Scott from The Office: "I work too hard, I care too much, and sometimes I can be too invested in my job."
WINDOW OR AISLE SEAT? I've always been a window seat gal. I love to look outside and use the side to rest my head for naps.
WHAT'S YOUR PET PEEVE? I'm not a big fan of people playing on their phones when the traffic light turns green. Just go already!
