List-O-Mania

source
Firstly, you've heard the song by Phoenix - Lisztomania? No? Well you should. HERE it is on Youtube. I don't know where else to show you where I don't get copyright infringement by suggesting it.

But that is not what I was here to talk about. I just wrote the title and started singing the song and voila! I had to tell you! If you don't already know, there is also a thing on Amazon called Listmania. These are lists of books created by users of Amazon. Sometimes they are very helpful, like when you want a free E-book for your (iPhone) Kindle (Free Books HERE).(EHow Hints HERE)

But I am not going to talk about that either.

I am here to ask you: Do you love lists? I do. I write lists for everything. EVERYTHING. To Do List. Travel Ideas List. Books Read in 2011 List. Blog Ideas List. Possible Career List. Ideas for Organizing my Life List. Grocery List. Movies I Want To Watch List. What I Will Make For Dinner This Week List. Yes. It goes on and on. The List of lists. It goes on!

When I was a kid my parents gave me a Kodak 110 (I think that is what it was) and my Dad told me to note the number of the picture and to write down where it was taken so later when I develop the film, I will know where I was when I took that photo. I did. I still do. It's a little different now, but I have a calendar where I note down where I am each day so when I go to organize my photos, I have an idea of where the (heck) I was! I also keep maps and things so I will remember names, especially if I am in a country where they speak a foreign language and the names are hard to remember.

So, in honor of all the lists, here are a few I have written that may be of use to someone besides myself.

You May Be in India If...
Great Apps For Your iPhone
What I Love About Vietnam
Weird Things English People Say

Enjoy! There will probably be more where these come from. Also, if you don't already do Chelsea's Ten on Tuesday, you should. It is a fun list as well. You can see mine HERE or her Archive Page HERE.

This post is part of the A-Z blogfest. L is (OBVIOUSLY) for List. You can find my other posts HERE.

  2. First off, love that song by Phoenix - and all of their songs, really. But Lisztomania has such a great beat, it always seems to put me in a good mood!

    I am a list maker too. Packing lists. To do list. Shopping lists. Blog idea list. Lists of people i need to call email. You name it, I list it out! I just love the satisfaction of crossing things off a list!

  3. Lists are just about my favorite thing ever! Glad there's someone else out there who shares the same enthusiasm.

  4. I love lists! I live for lists. To do lists and to visit lists and favorite books/movies/music lists. I'm a list freak.

  6. Oh my goodness! I am a major list maker! I can't go anywhere without a pen and pad of paper so I can start a list when I need to. People think I'm obsessive. I probably am.

    I'm new to your blog! I found you through FTLOB and can't wait to read more! Feel free to check out my blog as well. :)
