Re: Monday morning POLL!
Are you an extrovert or introvert? Very extroverted. I can be borderline obnoxious sometimes, especially when I'm in sports settings [like OSU or Thunder games - I tend to just say what's on my mind].
Shopping online or shopping at a store? Shopping online. I hate dealing with malls and stores, so if I know something will fit me, I'll usually just get it online.
Wine or beer? Wine please!
Are you a leader or a follower? A leader. I also tend to just take charge when there's no sense of direction. It's pissed people off before, but it gotten the job done. I do have to be careful about being too big of a leader though.
What is your opinion on home birth? I'm OK with it. I'm not sure I'd want to do one myself because I get too panicky when things don't go well and there's nothing around to help correct it [we almost had an emergency c-section with JJ because we kept losing his heartbeat - I'm way too afraid something like that will happen if I do a homebirth]. I think it's an amazing experience, but I'm more afraid of the "what could go wrong?" aspect than anything else.
What ONE board on the nest/bump do you check most often (other than this one)? My anniversary board - even after 2.5 years on TN [and nearly four years before that on TK], that board is still fairly active.Are you an extrovert or introvert? Introvert
Shopping online or shopping at a store? At a store. I'm really picky about how clothes fit.
Wine or beer? Neither
Are you a leader or a follower? Follower most of the time. In some situations, I will lead.
What is your opinion on home birth? I wouldn't want one personally. But I don't have a problem with other people having them.
What ONE board on the nest/bump do you check most often (other than this one)? Health & Fitness. It helps motivate me to keep up with running and to think about what I'm eating.

Shopping online or shopping at a store? Depends on what I'm shopping for and where I'm shopping. If it's a store that I'm familiar with, I'll shop online. If not, I'd rather be there to see/feel/try on. I probably prefer in-store, overall. Sometimes I need that retail therapy, and I don't get the satisfaction of buying something as much when it's online.
Wine or beer? A year ago I would've said beer, but I think I'm turning into a wine girl. Beer makes me very bloaty, and I'm sort of done with that. Does that happen to everyone, or do I just have a weird digestive system?
Are you a leader or a follower? A little of both, I guess. My current job has really forced me to develop the leader side of my personality. I probably default to follower.
What is your opinion on home birth? I think natural childbirth is awesome, but I don't think I could do at-home. Not for me, but if it's your thing, great!
What ONE board on the nest/bump do you check most often (other than this one)? BABY NAMES! Ahhh! I am so addicted.

What is your opinion on home birth? Totally not for me.
What ONE board on the nest/bump do you check most often (other than this one)? I lurk on Entertainment a lot.
Are you an extrovert or introvert?
I took this workshop once, about personalities, and the woman said basically that I'm a weirdo who "should" have come out as an extrovert, but because I had to learn to play by myself and all of that, being an only child, I tend to lean a little toward the introvert sometimes.
Shopping online or shopping at a store?
Shopping at the store! But I LOVE "window" shopping online!
Wine or beer?
Neither - I hate the taste of both.
Are you a leader or a follower?
Eh, usually a follower.

I think it's a fantastic thing and hope that I'm brave enough to give it a try someday.

What is your opinion on home birth? Great option for low risk mothers and experienced midwives, but not for me.
What ONE board on the nest/bump do you check most often (other than this one)? Most recently, my birth month board. Normally I lurk over on MM and PC&E. I was on and off TTTC/IF some, and now sometimes on PAIF. Since I don't have a job that allows nesting, I don't post on many boards.Are you an extrovert or introvert? introvert. I find it very difficult to talk to new people, especially when they all seem to know each other.

What is your opinion on home birth? it's difficult enough to try to get it on at home with the dogs around, I could only imagine trying to give birth. And I like the idea of the hospital having visitor hours so they kick people out at appropriate times. I could just imagine my inlaws piling up at my house just after I've given birth.
What ONE board on the nest/bump do you check most often (other than this one)? Fashion and Beautyduplicate post
Are you an extrovert or introvert? I am an extrovert. There are some days I feel more introverted.
