You Know How Hard It Is For Me
To Shake The Disease
That Takes Hold of My Tongue
In Situations Like These

Pack-rat-icism:

1. The condition which allows one to believe the inner voice that says things such as (a) "I totally have a use for this," (b) "I forgot I had this, I should use it," (c) "Oh, I remember when I got this ... it is good to remember with these things"

2. The act of hoarding items that may be of use or memory later in life


Sample Sentence:
I am drowning in stuff due to my terrible packraticism.


So, is there medication for this disease yet? Cuz I could seriously use some right now.

You forgot

1 (d). "I might have a need for this one day, so I better keep it because I sure don't want to have to buy another one some day, even if it only costs 12 cents."
