Interesting. That garment on eBay just took another leap. It's a classic situation: two newcomers to eBay (zero feedback) get in there and bid right away. There are tons of watchers, lots of looks, and about three bidders. After all of that work, it will probably be someone who bids once by snipe in the last six seconds who gets the coat.

I suspect that it is the size of the wearer that makes this coat interesting. So many of them are smaller sizes, and this is for a way-Rubenesque stature.

Papers papers everywhere. They're suddenly all over the place and not filed where I want them. I see my next de-clutter project. And a new, ongoing one for a while--hauling laundry to the laundromat until I can fix the washer. I'll get some reading in, anyway. Laundromats are always good for that.
