Unromantical
This hits awfully close to home for me. 
Because yeah. I mean, if nothing else, on the dinosaur with the love interest, right? Right?
It's no surprise or revelation that I'm not sentimental. Yes, in fact, I would prefer to regret getting rid of something I'm not using. Rather that than keep it around, you know, just in case. Unworn, but perfectly serviceable clothes? Out. Unused, sometimes even unopened kitchenware? Out. Little tidbits given with good intent but not at all to my taste or style? Out.
I don't keep something just because someone important gave it to me. I'm fairly well-known for that in my family, and this is why my mother gives me the things she doesn't want but can't bear to shed. She knows I'll have no problem hauling it off to the thrift store. This is also why socks are the most common gift I receive for the holidays. You really can't go wrong with socks. Even ugly socks are useful. This, by the way, is not a hint or call for ugly socks, y'all. Srsly.
And even though I'm cold-hearted and unfeeling,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
