rmI just took _the_ coat to the dry-cleaners in advance of finally dealing with the tailoring thing ASAP.
"Ah, Rahel! Another coat! Oh... this coat... this is a serious coat," he said, patting it.
"Yeah. And really heavy," I said, having lurched over there with my fencing bag on my back.
"Yes. Serious."
"Take care of her, yeah?" (My dry cleaner is getting used to this; the amount of weird, fragile and/or hand-tailored stuff I'm emotional about is sort of massive and if he could just stop pressing the collars on my Regency shirts wrong, life would be perfect).
"I take care. R-a-h-?"
"e-l," I add as he fills out the ticket.
I'm not sure when or how I became Rahel there, but that's what's happened. The whole thing was kinda great.
