I write, and I'm descended from pack rats.<br /><br />I&nbsp;have an easier time getting rid of <strong>stuff </strong>than my boyfriend, but I do have a harder time with information or other things that might be filed. Currently I&nbsp;have nearly one entire drawer of my 2 drawer cabinet filled with articles from classwork and a few hobby interests when I was in graduate school in the early 90's. It hurts my heart just to throw them away (&quot;What if they're useful?!?&quot; my conscience cries at me.). But there isn't much other room to file anything new.<br /><br />I don't even know how to put this in perspective anymore.<br />&nbsp;</p><br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=unclutter&ditemid=63908" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments
