Is there a way to order my tasks to my liking?

Unfortunately not; it's only possible to sort your tasks by name, priority, or due date.
Good question. Cue the following recording...
Sorting, as it exists, was not originally part of RTM. It was added on 8/1/07, and those three sort options (priority, date, alphabetical) are better than nothing, but...
These boards are littered with threads by people suggesting different sorting schemes. A very non-comprehensive list follows, including several that ask for just what you desire...

* The idea that smartlists have access to an operator that would specify sorting is one of the many great ideas found in the threads above. I think that would help make RTM's best feature even better.

Please. I want to manually sort the tasks somewhere so I can plan (and execute) my day. It could even be a dedicated feature for Day Planning.
