For a control freak, lists are therapeutic. In a world gone mad (a world where finding a job is clearly not in the cards), making a series of completely pointless lists brings me focus (and a welcomed feeling of control -- over my dreams at least).
Here is one of my favorite (and most illogical given my current circumstances) lists of late. GG, TL and KF (and any other lovely friends or family members who have resisted posting on my self-indulgent little public journal in the past) -- what are some of your favorite lists?
Top 10 Places To Visit (in no particular order):*
1. Havana
2. Bali
3. Amalfi Coast
4. Bangkok
5. The Greek Isles
6. Cairo
7. Namibia
8. Singapore
9. Tunis
10. Victoria, British Columbia
*This list really does change on a daily basis. Also, I'm accepting takers for anyone who wants to go on these trips with me when we are all rich and famous.

Yay! Am so happy you're writing even without Rustie. And I love the tagline on this blog.
Lists... I am not much of a list person, actually, but I do enjoy my 30 for 30 list. And I make grocery lists. How's that for boring.
Have you seen rememberthemilk.com? I think that is a list-maker's little piece of heaven...
These days, the lists I make are all about what I need to remember to do that day, week and before the critter arrives. Lame. :) Although I do keep a running list of the 100 things I want to do before I die. Some day I will have to post it. As for your travel list, count me in for anything I can afford or have the time to get away for! I would go back to Bangkok in a heartbeat.
In sort of random order...
1. Tibet
2. Amalfi Coast
3. Greek Islands
4. Dubrovnik
5. Barcelona for an extended time
6. New Zealand
7. Sweden
8. Alaska
9. Paris (for longer than 2 days this time)
10. cooking tour of Italy
Your posts are cracking me up. Please write about Romeo.
