Stationary - picked up at Big Lots, dollar stores, clearance racks at craft stores. Accumulate, do not regularly distribute.
Hoarding self?
Why do I feel the need to fill up an entire card or write poignant letters?
Why can't I send a short note to say "hello?" (The card already has a message!)

I hoard stationary. I hoard my creativity. I hoard myself.
- Excuses: No stamps
- More art than stationary
- Incoming mail, no outgoing
