Confessions of a List Addict...

I have a confession to make: I am a chronic list-maker.  To-do lists, shopping lists, playlists, lists of quotes I want to remember - any sort of list you can imagine, I've probably written it, in fact, if you took all the time I've ever spent writing lists and put it towards actually achieving the items on them, I'd probably be a hell of a lot further along with my life goals (another list that I have, of course, written!)

Anyway, this not-so-groundbreaking confession (if you know me, you are probably well aware of the habit) comes with a story - several months ago, while procrastinating and generally perusing the blogosphere, I stumbled across something.  Something wonderful, something that made my compulsive list-making feel a little less like a guilty pleasure and slightly more socially acceptable - well, at least I realised that I'm not the only crazy list fiend out there.  I am, of course, talking about the Secret Society of List Addicts, an amazing blog run by a whole group of fellow list-makers.  

Having read religiously ever since, and basked gleefully in a shared obsession, I finally plucked up the courage to submit one of my very own lists, which can now be found here in the form of my very first ever guest post - check it ouuuut!  I hope you'll enjoy my list and the many other fantastic ones that can be found there - you name it and they've listed it!
