HAHAHAHAHA :) Good one. Now I'll share my story...
My Shakespeare class was earlier today. There's a very nice woman, in her
40s or early 50s, who's Irish but has been living in England since she was
17. She commented on my coat after class. So I started telling her of the
wonders of my coat. How water beads up on it. How it needs to be oiled
every couple of years. I went on a bit and she said, "Oh, so it's like a
pet, then?"
That's it. My Pet Coat.
