Is anyone else a pack rat ?

[Wolfpack Bitch]

I recently moved and I'm finding so much random stuff that I've held onto over the years. I've got stuffed animals from when I was a kid, they have names.. Sunshine & BunBun. Love letters from one of my high school boyfriends. Letters from a friend who joined the army. Letters from a friend who spent a lot of time in jail. I found my Yo-Ball, my original Silly Putty (still good), the original Rubic's Cube. A 1993 copy of Playgirl with Bret Michaels on the cover. My collection of hockey cards (from 1990).

All of this stuff is from before 1995, most older. Keeping in mind that I'm closing in on 40.

Anyone else have random stuff laying around that they just don't see fit to get rid of ?

I keep a lot of my drawings and art stuff. I won't get rid of them, even though they just sit behind my dresser. And almost all of my notes from junior high. I have an entire little tote full of them, it's a little ridiculous. Emotional attachments are hard to break, though. D':

Yup. I like to keep hold of stuff, i enjoy the nostalgia buzz when i stumble across something from years past.

I used to hang out with Sinatra back in the day, yeah.

[Sir Woodrow]

A little bit of a Pack Rat yes.

I'd say so. If I get bored when I'm home, I go through a bin of old Sports Illustrateds that are a few years old. It's such a flashback to what was going on at the time.

A bit. But I'm a toy collector.

When you're a kid, your parents are like "okay, you can pick out one toy today."

Little do they know later on in life, you'll be buying the entire wave of figures all at once because this type of withholding reward from them will cause an addiction.

Yeah I'm kidding.

Mostly <_<

I keep magazines and newspapers I probably should throw out. They're not in piles though, most are already in bags but I just can't strike up the nerve to.
