I mean, they are disgusting people in every way (ever see an attractive hoarder?), but I am obsessed with their dysfunction.
I'm a throw-away-er. I don't do clutter and like getting rid of things (sometimes, things I actually need). I"m a hoarders nightmare. I think one of the reasons I love hoarding shows is because I love watching them throw so much stuff away. That's messed up, I know.
So my life took on a new level of exciting when, perusing Netflix streaming this past weekend, I came upon a delightful series - "Confessions: Animal Hoarding."
Be still my heart.
(Quick aside: Animal Planet, marry me. I am deeply in love with you. First, "My Cat From Hell", and now a ANIMAL hording show?!?!)
I'm having to pace myself with watching the episodes. There are only 16 total, which could easily be blown thru in a marathon day. To maximize the longevity of the series, my routine has become:
- Get up.
- Make my morning cup of coffee.
- Watch an episode.
- Do something productive - laundry, perhaps.
- Watch an episode.
- Pick up the house.
- Watch an episode.
- Nap. (Duh).
- Get dressed and brush my teeth before Luis comes home.
That's three episodes a day. Tragically, I'll be done by the end of the week.
I'm at episode 7. The synopsis:"A retired Army linguist shares his house with 158 roosters and hens. A popular waitress is fired because she reeks of cat urine."
I'm giddy.

I love My Cat from Hell. Love.
ReplyDeleteI also love watching people clean shit out, but I can't watch Hoarders because it infuriates me when they want to keep a broken frisbee.
