Pondering With a Purpose

Thursday again! Time to do a little "pondering" with Brenda from Fiction With a Purpose.

Her rules are really easy:

1. Grab the Pondering with a Purpose Badge (in her sidebar)

2. Look at the week's prompt

3. Post something on your blog that relates to the prompt - it can be a story, a poem, a picture -- anything you want it to be.

4. Go back here and add the URL from your post to the linky list on Brenda's.

5. Go check out the other bloggers who have added their links to the list.

6. AND most of all.... Have fun!

This Week's prompt:   What are you most comfortable in? 
Well - that depends. If we are talking about clothing - I would say that I am most comfortable in a pair of pajama pants and an old t-shirt. If that is not "appropriate" then I would choose, believe it or not a dress. Not a fancy dress, just a long, flowing dress (or skirt for that matter). 
Now if we are talking about "situations" or places - I'm really a simple person - I like small , informal groups. I HATE big fancy restaurants. Just give me a place where there are "real" people - you know, the kind of people you can talk to without feeling that they are looking down their noses at you.
