    A forgotten Golden Era virtue, Thrift

    To be honest, I don't really use my cell phone outside of this scenario. I HATE talking on the phone. I grew up watching my mom on the phone all the time -- it was more important for her to gossip with her friends than interact with me so I hate the phone. I'd rather converse in person. Oh...

    Take it off!!! (Let's hear what you think, ladies.)

    I strongly dislike moustaches. Not a fan of beards, but I can tolerate them more than a lone moustache. Fortunately, my husband is completely UNHAIRY and can't grow either :)

    A forgotten Golden Era virtue, Thrift

    I do like having fun things. I don't NEED a 160G iPod, but I WANTED one so I saved up for it and bought one. I had an 8G one before it and it worked perfectly fine -- but I love music so much I need to "have it all." In no way did I feel "entitled" to an iPod. I saved up for both of them...

    Tragic dimensions to what we do?

    Me. My husband pointed out to me recently that I was getting way too into vintage. I was. My interests were very limited and I didn't give much of anything else a chance. I was turning into an unlikeable snob and people just couldn't relate to me so no one bothered. I've since shed the...

    Any military mom or dads out there?

    My husband is in the National Guard. He leaves for OSUT/AIT on Sunday. Technically, he counts as a kid. lol Watch for me on the "Show Us What You Made" thread a whole bunch of times in the coming months. :)

    Do you dress down to compensate?

    I wear what I want. I like vintage styles and I also like jeans and girl-cut t-shirts (what i wear a majority of the time). I could care less what anyone else thinks and would never "compensate" for anyone.

    What Have You Acquired From Family?

    http://snapped-garters.blogspot.com/2010/12/1938-kenmore-rotary-deluxe.html My grandmother's 1938 sewing machine. She used into the 1970s (the decade she died) and then my mom would ocassionally use it into the early/mid 80s. Then it went into hibernation for about 25 years until I...

    Unpopular music opinions

    I found this thread to be hilarious and amusing. lol I'm a psychology student so it speaks to me in that way, also!! Hehe! Other's people's tastes have always fascinated me ever since I was a kid and I always wanted to know why or why not. I mentioned I liked Milli Vanilli and other...

    What is your personal 'No-No' for makeup, hair, & wardrobe?

    I mostly wear jeans in the winter, but if I wear a dress I wear it bare-legged with white ankle socks. lol

    Time Warp

    I would like to walk down the Philly streets in 1932. Like, turn a corner and it's 1932. lol

    Unpopular music opinions

    I really, really hate the song "My Heart Belongs To Daddy." It just makes me think of Chris Hanson. lol

    Unpopular music opinions

    Yea!! KIDD VIDEO (an 80s cartoon band). Love them. Guys Next Door (crappy early 90s kids' TV show) -- LOVE THEM. I also have a soft spot for the Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego? soundtrack. I also like Milli Vanilli and Nolan Thomas.

    Unpopular music opinions

    lol lol lol You are cracking me up, rue!!!! And I think we have pretty much the same taste except for Queen. Unpopular opinion: I LIKE QUEEN! I also don't mind the Stones during their 79-81 period. Anything else = bleh. More unpopular opinions: I like Asia. I like Phil Collins (I get...

    Unpopular music opinions

    I don't like: The Beatles, Elvis, The Cramps, The Pogues, Aerosmith, KISS, or Springstein. I find most 1950s and early 1960s music unlistenable. I love music from the 1890s to the swing days, but I can only take so much of it. I think the 1980s was the best decade for music...

    What is your personal 'No-No' for makeup, hair, & wardrobe?

    No orange anywhere ever -- it's the ugliest colour, IMO. No girdles or stockings -- yuck. Uncomfortable. I'm always messing with them and they make me feel self-conscience so I only wear them to "play." No silly shoes. I can't stand uncomfortable feet. Not even for an "image." No...

    Facebook anybody?

    If people send you a friends request you have to accept it. Why accept people you don't know and then complain about it? If I don't know the person I check out their profile. If we have stuff in common, I will add them. If there is no interaction I usually take them off within a couple...
