1. Clothes Shops: consignment shops mostly, but also Peter Harris Clothing, TJMax, Tractor Supply Company (women's western/farm/outdoor wear).
2. Online clothng shops: Haven't shopped online in years, but I still "window shop." I like Coldwater Creek, Chico's, PFI Western, Hippy Chix, and wholesalemall.com/women's plus size (formally completeoutfits.com).
3. Music on your I-pod:
I've never used an I-pod in my life. Don't know a thing about them. I don't even own a regular CD player (other than my computer and portable DVD/CD player).
I only have the playlist player (see above). I have four different playlists. My main playlist "Playwrite27's playlist" (on Roasting David Tennant) features a mix of oldies I'm fond of, contempory music I enjoy, and some other stuff I like: jazz, folk, easy listening and cajun.
On here ("playwrite27 contemporary") it's a mix of contemporary music artists and individual songs I like listening to.
I have two other playlists--one that's strictly oldies, and one that features car/road trip tunes.
4. Television series: As most of you know, I don't get television, I do watch it when I can, in hospital/doctor's offices, bars, the laundromat, my farm lady friend's house.
But, I do like: Dr Who, Remember WENN, Are You Being Served? Austin City Limits, Trotters and Pacers (harness racing), Equestrian Nation, Wide World of Horses, Star Trek TNG, Trains and Locomotives, The Roping Show (cowboy lassoing), West Wing, Inside the Actors Studio, The Adirondacks, Law and Order, Queer Eye (USA), Father Ted, I Love Toy Trains, Vicar of Dibley, Keeping Up Appearences, Lovejoy, All In The Family, What's My Line Anyway?, One Foot in the Grave, Top Chef, Frazier, Antiques Roadshow (both USA and UK versions), Nova and horsecity.com TV, Top Gear...and, please try not to snigger, but, I also used to watch Classic Tractors and Big Joe's Polka Show (well, I am half-Polish).
5. Coffee:
Green Mountain Coffee--Vermont Country blend, hazelnut, mocha java and Harvard blend flavours are my favs. Lots of cream, no sugar. No expresso, no cappuchino, no Turkish, just ordinary old coffee and cream.
5. Pizza:
Pepperoni, cheese (marghretta), BBQ chicken, Hawaiian, sliced sausage, sliced kilbasa (Polish) sausage, eggplant, bacon-cheeseburger, white (bianca) broccolli, white (bianca) smoked salmon and broccolli w/whole wheat crust (my own invention years ago).
6. Supermarket:
I don't have any one favourite, I go wherever I feel like going to, or whomever has the best sales, or whomever is simply cheapest. When money is tight, I go to Price-Rite, Super Wal-Mart, or Aldi's. When things are OK, I go to Price Chopper or Hannaford.
7. Books:
Yes, I have books. I did a book meme a few days ago, so I am not going to elaborate, other than to say that I will read whatever grabs me, no matter what it is...excpet for romance novels...bleh!
8. Your DVD's:
I have between 25 and 30 DVD's....Dr Who, westerns, comedies, drama, classics, sit-coms, action/adventure.
9. Artwork:
Yes, I only own two original art works, nothing posh. An oil on board cowboy/western scene painting done in the early or mid-60's by a guy named George Hoose, and an oil on canvas painting of a bluebird on a blossoming branch. The bird is by someone whose signiture looks like "Sampkin" or "Samkins" or something like that...the signiture is hard to decipher. I got the bird painting at a second-hand shop, and I expect that it was probably from one of those massed produced "starving artists" shows, tho' heaven knows. I'm not sure why I bought it, other than i just liked the bird, and..it it had a nice carved teak frame. The rest of the stuff on my walls are prints/posters or decorative plates.
10. Someone I'd like to meet:
My friends online, I think that would be fabulous! I really can't think of anyone famous, I'd like to meet...well, i can think of a few, like Russell T. Davies, Hilary Clinton, Carson Kressley, Jimmy Carter, Dawn French, Graham Norton, Neil Simon, or Derek Jacobi...and yes, maybe David Tennant, but they'd likely not give a rat's arse about meetng me, so...nuts to that. I'd rather meet someone, who is "real" and actually would want to meet me, too.
