Fok me. Just went to chuck an archaic cheap looking wall clock in mom's basement that on a whim I looked up on ebay. I see one that sold a few years back for $41. Now I am debating whether to chuck it or exert the effort to do something else with it. WTF is my problem? Maybe it's like not looking back at the roulette table once you walk away. Maybe one should just chuck stuff without regard to potential value. If I don't I will never get this done. Years ago time was money and it would already be chucked...but since I have so much time on my hands now, it just seems wrong to not attempt to sell somehow.
 
I am a massive hoarder.

The woman found my EZ-Test "chemical" testing kits in a box the other day.

Her - What's this for?
Me - It's for science.
Her - What kind of science?
Me - Recreational drugs.
Her - Ok. *chucks kits*
 
I got some good news anyway. My brother is not attending the 3 year-old's birthday party tomorrow.

Does that make me horrible? Being glad the three year-old will not have one of his uncles at his party just because it saves me a couple hours of driving around?



When I started typing that question I had visions of people coming to my defense but actually, yeah, it does make me a bit horrible.

No. Not horrible, human. And he's 3. Will he even notice said uncle is not attendance? Will it even matter if he gets cake and a lot of toys?....and most of all, will he remember in 20 years who was in attendance at his year 3 birthday party?

I imagine I could have got a few hundreds bucks for the stuff I chucked if I really made the effort.

I imagine I could have been more charitable and environmentally friendly too.



Fuck it.

Yeah you're right. I have enough problem with 600+ items of clothing, I don't need the hassle of looking up every piece of junk in the basement thinking it might be an Antiques Roadshow find. Seems silly that I stress about a $40 clock when I will put significantly more than that on a game without thinking twice. I have made quite a bit of progress today however. And I'm going to bundle mom out and head down to a charity drop off, before I have the opportunity to start looking thru it again.
 
I guess I will get that job I am going to interview for. It's hard to imagine anyone being crazy enough not to hire me.

Unless there is just something blatantly stupid about it to make me say no, I guess I will have a job soon.



Will have to wrap my mind around that.

It's weird. The kid was so crazy excited when we showed up for Thanksgiving a couple weeks ago.

"Uncle Steee! Uncle Ale!"

(He calls my brother Al who is, let's face it, an alcoholic, Uncle Ale. Getting started on the Freudian stuff early, this one.)

But it's like, how do you even know who I am? You are not forming permanent memories yet. You have not seen me in like 5 months or something. How can you tell me from a Jehovah's Witness coming to your door?

:dunno:

Kid was excited out of his head though.



Nevertheless it is a vastly superior vibe to the day ahead knowing I will not be trekking all over the countryside for those extra hours.

A few years ago I was basically living out of my car and in motels, I had everything I owned/needed/wanted in a single hockey bag that would easily fit in my cars trunk.

I'm still a minimalist. If I'm not using something, it gets chucked.

I really enjoy keeping it simple when it comes to "stuff".

I'm no hoarder, and not in danger of becoming one. My apt is neat and tidy and only contains items that get regular use that are in good condition.

Also, I have thrown out alot of pictures, old memories don't make me feel better, usually worse.

I have a hard time letting go of emotions and old pictures don't help. I ran in to an ex girlfriend at the supermarket a few months after breaking up, she told me she wanted to give me some photos I had taken of her and went home and brought them to me. I trashed them as soon as we said goodbye. I don't want pictures of any of my exes.

You would like some of the pictures of my exes.:bumpforgregm:
 
Here is a pic from the birthday party. There were so many toys - I didn't know what to play with first.
