I've got quite a large box of books that won't fit on the shelf too. Somehow, I managed to fit said box into my closet. Whenever I have a bit of money, I visit library book sells and buy several bags of books - why, I cannot be sure, as I will go to the same library the next day and check out twenty or so books. Books, therefore, is the number one hobbie that I have that has gotten out control.

The second is library cards. I love libraries, and try to obtain a card every time I visit outside my county and/or state. So far, I have one from Maryland, one from Arizona, and several from Virginia.

The third, which has proved to fill my room to its utmost capability by far, is rocks. I don't collect rocks any longer, but there was a time when a day could not go by without some bag of rocks finding itself in my room. My parents finally told me to throw my rocks out. But I retained a basket of the nicest ones, which I have secured in my room.

My fourth hobby-gone-wild is my collection of notebooks. My room is chockful of them.
