This one's real deep...

Lists lists lists!
I love lists. There's something so crisp, airy and endearingly pompous about them.
Every time I attempt to cram my prancing, meandering thoughts into the segregated straight-jackets of points, I feel a sense of purpose. Like I've joined the army or something.
I'm sorry, am I coming off as surreptitiously sarcastic? Oh, don't get me wrong then. I love them lists. To-do list, book list, movie list, stationary list, checklist, blog list... they're as diverse as the insects in the Amazon (forest, not river or website obviously).
Making lists can almost be like decorating your room or garnishing a salad. So many ways to organise them! Say with me! Alphabetical! Random! Subject-wise! CHRONOLOGICAL!!
Almost sounds like a war cry doesn't it? In a way, my dears, it is.
I love how lists so conveniently cut through the crap and get right to the heart of all the tomfoolery.
For example, if you're still wondering why I bothered writing this particular post, let's seek our solution through that most noble of tools -the list.

Let's make a list of words that best bring out the essence of this deeply symbolic post:
- utter
- bloody
- rubbish

See what I mean? They're invaluable. The above list clearly indicates the following conclusions:
- the writer of this blog is an eccentric oddity
- who had a lot of useless time on her hands
- simultaneously, there was nothing good on TV

I sure do love them lists. Oh yes sir, I do.

I love lists too! OUR list. What was it that we decided to call that thing? Bullet list? Bucket list?

Ah anywho, that list is one lucky bitch. Here's why:
- we're BOTH going to do it
-together
-have fun while we're at it
-be glad once it's been accomplished

Gee, it's a happy threesome :)

Love from me to you! <3

PS: my word verfication word read "SUCKED IF"
WHY? Is this a sign? Is it trying to tell me something? Is this the internet's form of mockery, like TO MY FACE?!

PPS: Needs the html notes, pleez?
