How can I have one-month nostalgia??

kickahaI'm on a developer mailing list (snail mail kind) where I get a nifty CD every month from the fruit company, chock full o' nifty geek goodness. Every quarter, I get a DVD archiving everything up until that point. (And I mean everything.) So you'd *THINK* that I'd only have at most three discs lying around, right? (Most recent DVD + two intervening months of CDs.)
Of course not.
I must have 75 of the bloody things lying around. It just struck me a moment ago how silly this is. So I go to toss the most recent CD in the trash since I have the new DVD in the same mailing.
Block.
I can't do it. It seems like such a waste. It's a *NEW CD* for god's sake, all pretty labeled up in a nice little artsy sleeve... do I need it? No. Do I want it? No. Is it taking up space and cluttering my life? Yup.
Can I bring myself to just *drop it in the damned trashbin*?
Apparently not. :P
Anyone want a bright shiny plastic thingy with neat colors? How about 70 of them?
Of course not.
