1. What size shoe do you wear?

9 1/2 or 10, depending on the cut and the width. (7 or 8 in men's and "unisex" sizes.)

2. How many pairs of shoes do you own?

Far too many. I honestly don't know.

3. What type of shoe do you prefer (boots, sneakers, pumps, etc.)?

I object to the question on the grounds that it depends what I'm going to be doing, what type of shoe I prefer.

4. Describe your favorite pair of shoes. Why are they your favorite?

These are Frye boots, Harness style, in black with an eight-inch shaft. They are super-comfy, and I looked and looked and looked for, like, years until I found them (in a store, that is; I could have ordered from online, but I need to be able to try shoes on at least the first time I buy them). Love these shoes. Love. Them.

5. What's the most you've spent on one pair of shoes?

Hmm, that's a toughie. About $130, I think. I've found that it's worth it to me to get solidly-built (and therefore more expensive) shoes once than to get cheaper knock-offs and have to keep replacing them.
