The List
I have a friend who writes a list and sends it out daily. The list is neat.
The rules of the list (as I see them...which means they are probably wrong, rules are only made by the list maker):
1. You have to be considered "special" to be a recipient of the list.
2. You have to be EXTRA special to get the list every day.
3. You can lose your status if you make a wrong move. This is really bad especially when you like getting the list each day. So, you MUST be careful to not annoy/anger the list maker.
4. The list has a new theme each day. And often there are cute pictures of famous actors. (Bonus).
5. You should (it is STRONGLY encouraged) to reply to the list with comments. And you should know this without being told.
6. You should in NO WAY expect an acknowledgment that your comments were received, liked, or disliked. Questions will not be answered if the list maker doesn't want to answer.
7. Don't EVER hit "reply all" when making comments. You will get your "hand slapped".
8. The list allows you a glimpse inside the brain, life, and character of the list maker. This is the best part of the list.
I LIKE, nay, I love the list.
Extra rule: The list doesn't have a BFF. I would like to think it is me if it ever has one. But I have been assured it doesn't.
Best thing that has happened with the list this week?
A picture of a famous country singer was on the list as someone the list maker didn't like. I replied that I didn't like the person either and that I thought she was ugly.
This was the reply I received:
"Hhahahaha... Thanks. I love you even more for that."
I love the list.

The list does not have a best friend... but... if the list was forced to pick a person whose company it enjoyed more than all the other list readers... it would probably pick you.
