16. Do you have a favourite genre of music?
Garrett and I share a favorite band, Information Society, and it was the favorite for both of us before we even met. The band's Wikipedia page lists their genres as synth-pop, freestyle, new wave, and electro-industrial. And I'd say if you take all that and add some grunge, you've pretty much got my absolute favorites covered. But that's far from all that I like. You'll find me enjoying pop music from the '50s through the '90s, plus a little country, some hip hop, disco, and so much more. I made sure to call those last three out because they're genres people love to say that hate. I love music and that's a big part of why teaching water fitness is so satisfying to me.
17. The US celebrates Hot Buttered Rum Day today! Have you ever tried it?
Yeah, it'll be in the house for the holidays every few years.
18. It’s Sunday – what was the best part of last week?
Today's actually Friday and the best part of the previous week was that little getaway I said I'd take. It's so nice to enjoy some time away from real life and social media and not even worry about trying to document anything.
19. What colour scheme is your bedroom?
I can't say I have one. The walls are off-white, the floors are grey, the dresser is black, and the doors, headboard, and end tables are wood. Part of me would love to have statement wallpaper in there, but I hang so much stuff on the walls that it's kind of pointless. Speaking of which, I should hang up more stuff. Specifically, my never-before-seen collection of bad action figures.
20. Have you read any of the Winnie the Pooh books?
When I was little, for sure.
