Okay, one brief comment about my ineptitude...I suck. All right, now that's out of the way, we can focus on business here. Yes, I did mean to say "keep" and not "eat." Which brings me to our next completely random topic, hoarding!
I wish I could say everyone has at least a tiny little hoarder inside them, but I know that's complete malarkey. I know people who want to throw everything they don't need, and then I know people who nearly refuse to get rid of anything. I'm probably somewhere in the middle of that hot mess.
I like to keep things because of the memories attached to them (I wore this bracelet to my very first concert or "so and so" loved it when I wore those pants), but then again I know when I really need to get rid of some shit. I just went through my whole wardrobe and essentially eliminated 2/3 of it! A hoarding miracle (and like $50 in garage sale money)!
Do you have some problems throwing things away? Do you have some problems with putting change into your life? If so, you may secretly be a hoarder. I'll just leave that little mind bomb sit there for a minute. Psst! Let me know if it detonates.
If you're already an admitted hoarder of sorts, do tell me what you keep. My problem is usually clothes, jewelry, shoes, and accessories in general.
Now, if you consider yourself a "collector," you're probably just sugarcoating. "I collect" is a very subliminal way of saying "I keep, like, everything." I'll admit it, I have started a few "collections" in my time. I once said I was collecting bracelets - so I didn't have to get rid of my baby bangles. I now have started a bottle cap collection. Not large at this point, but no one gives me their caps! I have found some really cool, old ones though, so I'm in too deep to stop. I've gotten attached.
AND THAT MY FRIENDS, IS HOW ONE BECOMES AN EXTREME HOARDER THAT ENDS UP ON TV.
Like I was saying, if you have some problems letting stuff go, this is a safe place. Tell me what you keep and I will keep it secret ;)
