5. Yesterday....
I wore my black T with the "Got Fear?" graphic on the front.
That one's gonna be in style for the next four years.
Yay.

4. yes at work
we decided ahead of time .... black for bush, red/white/blue for kerry. we are wearing black on 'coronation' day too!

i am rather lucky since i work in an adult school in a blue state and the great majority of the staff are blue. even the principal said he should have worn black.

7. Me, I wore all black today, and on purpose.
As I posted in another thread, my xmas decoration will simply be a black bow on my front door....nothing more. I will be advising my neighbors that I will not be participating in xmas this year, so don't buy me anything. In return, I will return the "favor".
I will make the few cards I send on the computer...Goodbye Hallmark.
No Thanksgiving for my family...I don't feel thankful in the least.

10. I have worn black for the last 4 years. Someone asked me why
I wear black all the time..I told them I was in mourning for my country.

I was so hoping to wear my bright pink suit yesterday. But black it is and it has been incredibly rainy and gloony here in Indy since Tuesday..quite appropriate I think.

13. Yes today and yesterday-also
A fundie knocked on my door yesterday for some bible thumping and I slammed the door in her face, "You got the wrong lady." I was shaking.

It totally freaked me out-like they were targeting me for being a Kerry voter even though I live in a big Blue area.

Thank God for DU and all the ability to say everything that comes into our mind!

15. That's me too.
I wear black about half the time. It's just the best color.

But yeah, if anyone asks, I'm mourning...
