Re: NL Beginner
Unfortunately the answer is "it depends". Depends on opponents, depends on image, depends on your postflop skill, depends on position. I'm probably still missing a bunch of stuff.
By far, position is the most important when facing a raise or re-raise preflop.
Generally, you're call/raise line is very tight. Personally against an unknown, I don't call a re-raise unless I have
22-TT(with proper odds using 5/10 rule)
JJ+
AKs/AKo
This may be a little bit too nitty, but it definetely loosens up once I get reads on players. I don't like getting into big pots with marginal hands agaisnt an unknown. In position I might add TT and AQs/AQo to the mix.
Also, one part of your post worries me,

I have a good idea of what kinds of hands I might limp in with and when

Your range of hands to open limp and limp after people should be very very small, mine is nonexistent against unknowns. I only limp when the situation warrants it, eg against calling stations with my drawing hands.
