Meme-ingful

This has been doing the rounds a bit, and as usual I am a little late to the party. I believe the originator can be found at Nake-id Knits

Grooming Products

  • Shampoo: Modern Organic Products Lemongrass and Chamomile for Fine Hair
  • Moisturizer: Origins Balanced Diet (supplemented with a number of other Origins white tea products)
  • Perfume: Most of the time, none. But when I do use, my current bottle is Fresia-scented cologne from Fragonard
  • Razor: Venus
  • Toothpaste: Crest Whitening (when you're a coffee drinker you need all the help you can get)

Electronics

  • Cell phone: Kyocera 7135 -- If it doesn't have a Palm OS on it, don't even bother to show it to me.
  • Computer: Chuckle. Which one? My laptop is a Gateway m505 widescreen that every now and again gets confused with an Apple PowerBook
  • Television: Dukane D-ILA projector and movie screen. Not my doing, but I enjoy it. How did we live before HDTV?
  • Stereo: my iPod and my laptop provide most of my stereo. But we also have a mix of nice components to go with the projector

Home

  • Sheets: In the winter, flannel. In the summer, jersey or cotton. I have very little color or print preference, but I do tend to find what I like best at Eddie Bauer and Pottery Barn
  • Coffee-maker: Saeco Magic Deluxe. The one device that my husband knows better than to mess with. The one device that will leave my house only over my cold, dead body.
  • Car: 1999 Mercury Cougar in a forest green color (the sporty little coupe, not the big behemoth). Fully loaded and with a manual transmission. (As my dad would say, if you don't have a stick, you're not driving, just steering. I'm definitely a stick girl.
  • Stationery: A little from Cranes, the rest eclectic. And most definitely electronic paper.

Beverages

  • Bottled water: I have no religion with bottled water, but will tend to pick Evian if given the choice.
  • Coffee: Peet's, Major Dickasons's Blend or Intelligensia's Flo Blend (a blend they make for my favorite local restaurant).
  • Vodka: Yes. Stoli if possible.
  • Beer: Microbrewed ales. Goose Island's IPA is one of my all time favorites. I'm also partial to a well poured Guiness

Clothes

  • Jeans: Gap, Long and Lean if I can get 'em.
  • T-shirt: Gap, Eddie Bauer, J. Jill, whatever I can find at CostCo
  • Briefcase or tote: I have an awesome backpack from Eddie Bauer for my laptop and my current favorite tote is a blue suede number that I bought from Levenger.
  • Sneakers: None, if I can avoid them, I think they make my feet look strange.
  • Watch: When I wear one, which is much less than I used to, the Movado my husband got me for Christmas the year before we were married.

Favorite Places: my home; Chicago; Sydney, Australia; the John Muir Forest; the big island of Hawai'i; Seattle

Extravagances: Food and dining out, tech toys and computer games, yarn (I suppose that goes without saying), books
