Spanish, so when Rosaura gets mad at me I'll know how she is cursing me.

2. If you had to change your first name, what name would you choose?
Wolfe­schlegel­stein­hausen­berger­dorff - just for the Halibut

3. If you could relive any year of your life, what year would you choose? Why?
If the idea is to just relive it, none of them - been there done that.

Mountains! Any and all!

I wouldn't. I like that Jane is classic and surprisingly uncommon for my age group.

3. If you could relive any year of your life, what year would you choose? Why?

No no, let's not go opening that can of worms. My first thought is I'd change last year so I could save Milo, but then I think of all the loved ones I maybe could have saved, and having to choose which one based on the year is too painful to think about.

4. If you could turn into any animal at will, which one would you select? Why?

Maybe a sperm whale so I could check out the depths of the ocean and have very few predators? Or a hawk. Swooping, soaring around the skies. Amazing vision. Oh yes.

7. If you could grant any three wishes to one person, to whom would you grant them? Why?

Oh come on, guys, really? Do I have to be the first person to say me, myself, and I? Am I that selfish? To be fair, I'd use these 3 wishes for the benefit of others as well as myself.

8. If you could hang a motto in every home, what would it say?

We've had this Irish blessing at the entrance to my family home for my whole life and I love it:

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind always be at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
and rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

HEY. I said my husband so I'd get more wishes, and they'd all benefit me, too! I don't want to have the added responsibility that come with wishes. I'd wish for dumb things out of excitement like pizza with zero calories.
