The Trash Collector

I have a confession to make. I collect junk! There I've said it. Now all you guys know I collect junk :D It's been a trait that I've had since childhood. Don't really know if that is bad or good though.

I'm the sort of person who just cannot bear to throw any of my things away, it doesn't matter if it's a piece of paper I've scribbled on or an old T-shirt that is being held together by spit or that pair of holey sneakers or even old Pomegranate trees. Ok, maybe not pomegranate trees ... hehehe ...


I cannot find the heart to throw things away even if I don't use them. I've got T-shirts in my wardrobe that has been lying untouched for years. It'll probably dissolve the moment I take it out. I have so much junk that I don't even remember where I got some of them from already.

Wifey has already warned me before I left for work that this weekend she's going to get rid of all the junk that I don't use cos it's taking up way too much space. And she in no uncertain terms said that she'll entertain any objections from me. Darn, I'd better go hide all my stuff before the weekend gets here ... LOL!

This is not really a new thing though. We've gone through my junk loads of times before and put it aside to throw away later. But then I'll go through the junk and say that maybe I'll still need this or maybe we still can use that and by the time I'm through, all the junk will be back with me.

So this weekend wifey is going to rummage through my junk again and she said I'd better not touch or even go through the pile once it's sorted out or they'll be no dinner for me the whole weekend. Well, she didn't really say that but I get her message :D But I'm sure I'll be able to sneak at least some junk back in. Hope she doesn't read this post though ... hehehe ...

What can I say, I can't throw away stuff. Some of the things I have don't even work but I simply cannot bring myself to throwing them away. I'll always have some excuse that maybe I can fix it or maybe I can use it some other time and I'll do my best to hold on to them for as long as I can.

But wifey does have a point. The place is getting a tad too crowded with my junk so I guess maybe it's time to REALLY get rid of some of them this weekend ... siggghhh ... Who knows, maybe I'll come across something from way back that could be worth a fortune if I put it up on eBay or something ... LOL!
