David In Indy:
Well, since nobody else volunteered, I guess I'll be the guinea pig and go first... :-\
1. Do you brown bag your lunch, or go out for lunch...?
Well, since I do much of my job from home, I just make a salad and sit down on the couch! If I'm at the office though, I normally skip lunch altogether.
2. Have you ever voted in the opposite political party to which you now belong?
Well, since I consider myself an Independent, I guess the answer would be "Yes". I vote Democratic most of the time.
3. Have you ever walked or bicycled to work in order to be more environmentally friendly?
No, but I have walked to work before (the ones that were located close to my house).
4. Do you belong to a club, or organization? If so, state if possible.
Yes. Oh, and you want me to tell you. I belong to several gay organizations, including the gay-straight alliance here in Indianapolis. I also belong to a local chamber orchestra.
5. Do you have a private Doctor, or a HMO?
I have a private doctor, and sometimes I think he's getting tired of hearing from me! I can be a bit of a hypochondriac sometimes.
6. What would be your choice if you could pick,,,the present insurance we have in this
country,,,or national medical insurance?
Well, since I have health insurance through my company, I'm satisfied with what I have. But, I do feel very badly for those who are uninsured. So, I would be very happy with National Medical Insurance.
7. How many years have you lived in your present home, or apartment?
About 5 years. I love my little house. It's a cape cod style home built in the 1920's. It's cute!
8. Do you let your kids pick their own clothes,,or do you do it for them...?
If you dont have kids, do you take other peoples opinion on your wardrobe?
Do I TAKE other people's opinion? No. I will listen to their opinions, but I normally end up ignoring it and make my own choices. I'm gay! Aren't we supposed to have excellent fashion sense? I'm joking!!
9. Have you ever went to a party or event, in totally inappropriat attire?
Yes. And I don't care to discuss it. lol
10. Would you like to wear designer clothes if you could afford it, or prefer to
get them off the rack, because you dont care that much for clothes...?
Designer honey!! Designer. Definately!
Great questions!
Okay. Who's next? It didn't hurt that bad! ;)
Lynne:
1. Do you brown bag your lunch, or go out for lunch...? I usually have ready-to-go food at work - frozen dinners or dehydrated stuff...once in awhile I go out with coworkers (or alone if I'm *REALLY* needing a break!).
2. Have you ever voted in the opposite political party to which you now belong? I'm registered as an Independent, but I change it every so often if I'm interested in the local elections. Here in small-town USA, the primary frequently settles it, so sometimes you have to change party affiliations to be able to vote for a viable candidate.
3. Have you ever walked or bicycled to work in order to be more environmentally friendly? Absolutely! It's what I loved most about living in Boston - that I could bike to work (or cross-country ski! ) on a converted rail-to-trail.
4. Do you belong to a club, or organization? If so, state if possible. Nothing really local...ACLU, PFLAG, Amnesty International, Greenpeace, Earthsave...your usual liberal assortment. ;)
5. Do you have a private Doctor, or a HMO? A private doctor - our family's GP is just the best - old school mannerisms but completely brilliant.
6. What would be your choice if you could pick,,,the present insurance we have in this country,,,or national medical insurance? I think we need to give national medial insurance a try. My latest peeve is the shenanigans pulled by Congress to keep us from buying drugs from Canada.
7. How many years have you lived in your present home, or apartment? Seven months in this teeny apartment- already one month longer than planned...prior to that 8 years.
8. Do you let your kids pick their own clothes,,or do you do it for them...? If you don't have kids, do you take other peoples opinion on your wardrobe? If I had kids, I'd let them pick their own as much as possible. I really don't take other people's opinion about my wardrobe...I go for functional whenever possible and have zero sense of fashion. ASIDE: I did take a colleagues advice once about getting my eyebrows waxed...learned my lesson, I assure you! :-\ :P
9. Have you ever went to a party or event, in totally inappropriate attire? Nothing really comes to mind. I guess I overdress when I go out to hear a band or something...I feel kinda foolish in my old neo-hippie clothes so I usually end up dressing up more than the younger crowd.
10. Would you like to wear designer clothes if you could afford it, or prefer to get them off the rack, because you don't care that much for clothes...? There was a time in my life that designer clothes were de rigueur. I don't miss it. I have a few select pieces, carefully chosen or retained, but mostly I don't care much about it...function over form.

This may be what I need - a personal shopper! I didn't get that fashion jean gene. I own maybe 8 pairs of shoes (most of my gf's have upwards of 40!!!).
