In five words, describe your most uncomfortable dream.
And then I actually peed.
What is your favourite word?
‘Fortuitous’ is in high circulation these days but I strongly enjoy ‘Hawrelak’ especially in conjunction with ‘park’. Combined, it’s like the onomatopoeia of a dog puking. ‘Onomatopoeia’ is also a good word… I’m going to go with ‘Onomatopoeia’.

‘Onomatopoeia’ smells like it sounds.
What is your spirit animal?
The sea otter.
If ghosts existed, would you want to meet one? If so, what would you ask it?
I’d meet a ghost for sure. I’d ask it to be my friend… or lover… Do you mean “ghost” like Casper or Patrick Swayze? There is a difference.

I would have a bottle of Lagavulin 16 years with the first person who walks by.
