soens
1) Retrieve them 2 or 3 days later?
2) Find them on craigslist for $100?
3) Be awakened at 3AM by the neighbor's dog rummaging through you garbage trying to get it?
4) Spend the next 3 weeks looking for it because you forgot you threw it away?
I'll see your 4 and raise you one there soens:
I'll keep stuff for years & years - even decades, thinking "I know I'll use this some day".
Then after decades of keeping & moving things around from place to place & address to address, I'll eventually say to myself, "Gee I never did use this - might as well finally chuck it."
THEN...months or even just weeks later, I'll finally come up with a use for something that I just chucked after all those years, [or forget I chucked it (them)], and then spend umpteen hours looking for it (them) like a crazed mad-man!
