someone with a significant other should make a "love story" @foursquare list

The foursquare lists functionality is probably my favorite feature released (besides the Chadge) Finally, a place to easily curate and share lists from your To-Dos and make them shareable to your friends so they can follow along. A Yelper for awhile, I've always seen the use case for lists based off reviews and places your friends have been. You trust your friends and they curate a small grouping of places based on a theme. Makes planning that "big party for groups" or "outdoor venue" party much easier.

People have been creating some pretty bad ass lists that I've eagerly subscribed to on foursquare. The What's What in Brooklyn list, the Harry Potter Dream Tour list, and then Naveen's Hidden New York list that makes me want to immediately start exploring.

But I saw a list today that gave me an idea. Dennis Crowley posted his "a brief history of foursquare" list showing the places where him and Naveen began to code the service, the many happy hour joints the team frequents and other places that have inspired the company/co-founder along the way.

How fun. A sort of "time capsule" visit to the places that helped shape your memories. Foursquare lists can be used to tell a story---and quite well in fact. Read his list and you'll immediately get some insight into the making of foursquare.

I would LOVE for someone to create a "love story" foursquare list documenting the places on foursquare that helped document a relationship. Where they met. First date. First kiss. Engagement. Baby delivery. You name it. Heck- I basically just gave someone a romantic engagement idea. YOU'RE WELCOME :)

So, can someone please do it? And let me know please. Thanks :)
