To-Do List e-bog

What Do Your Lists Say About You? More and more, we are a nation of list-makers, from grocery lists, New Year's resolutions, and things to do before we die to DVDs to rent and people we've kissed. In To-Do List (based on the popular blog of the same name, todolistblog.com) Sasha Cagen celebrates the humble to-do list, exploring the ways these scribbled agendas reflect our personalities and passions. To-Do List is both a celebration of lists and a peek at the lists that others create. Broken down by subjects like "e;Daily Lists"e; to "e;Sex Lists,"e; it's a fascinating collection of lists from everyday people to the well-known: Novelist Nick Hornby's list of desert island discs A therapist's secret fears ("e;I HATE having to think about clients in relation to my hair or clothes"e;) A shopping list from chef Alice Waters of Chez Panisse A woman's accomplishments before her thirtieth birthday ("e;Hot air ballooned over the Serengeti,"e; "e;Danced on a table in Vegas"e;) Qualities one man is looking for in a future wife, including "e;Chews with her mouth shut"e; and "e;Will let me give my first son the middle name of 'Jacob'"e; With each list, Cagen offers the story behind it and a prompt for readers to compare notes and take their own stab at a similar list. Voyeuristic and interactive, To-Do List will show you just how much -- and what -- your lists say about you.
