Coffee cup meme

Nicked from jaunthie and sunkrux.

What mugs are in your mug cupboard (or on your mug shelf, or whatever)?
How many, and which ones, did you actually purchase?
Which one(s) do you use most often? Why?
Do you think that the mugs listed below are representative of me

Little Frieda "Wowie-Zowie!" (bought)
Shakespeare's autograph (bought in Stratford)
OSF season '97 mug (bought in Ashland)
GreenStage season '07 mug (got from GreenStage)
Shakespeare's Globe mug with "All the world's a stage..." quote (bought at the Globe in London)
Car Talk diner mug (gift with NPR pledge)
KAOS radio mug (client swag)
KPLU radio mug (client swag)
Lost World mug (gift)
Lorax oversized mug (gift)
NASA mug (bought at NASA)
Mazama goat mug (2 bought in Mazama)

And for travel mugs (these are specifically mine):
Blue with a dragonfly and a handle (too big for the car cupholder) (bought in Alaska)
Greenstage (got from GS)
Xena Warrior Princess - "Be careful, I'm in a bad mood!" (bought at a Xena con, I think)

And I happen to know for a fact that in storage in my basement I have:
a mug of very naughty penguins that was given to me by a friend's mom when I was in middle school because I so admired her naughty bunnies mug
three different "Bitch" mugs - all gifts from three different people, dating back to high school...  Some things never change. ;)

I ususally use the Mazama, GreenStage, or Little Freida mug.  The first is a diner-style but a little bigger than you get in a diner; the second is extra tall; and the third just makes me happy.  I usually only use the Stratford mug for tea.  It just seems right that way.  It is bone china, after all.

Now if this meme was about t-shirts...

If it were about t-shirts, I'd have to go into hiding from the men in the nice white coats.
