Coats you say? I always thought Dusters were the hip-length coats, and Trenchcoats were the ankle-length ones. Shows what I know. What are the hip-length ones called?
I really wanted a long coat in middle school. My Dad thought I was turning goth, but he hunted around for one anyway. First he got me a wool British naval coat, which was really nice, except just a little too pimp. Then he found a cheap black pleather one at a garage sale, but it was actually a woman's coat. Then he bought me a real nice proper one (still black) for a Christmas present. I stopped wearing it the last year of highschool, and didn't wear it again until last winter as a raincoat. I love it, but I can't help but think it's just a little too gaudy and passe in 2010. Its a sad day for fashion when full-length black leather feels out of style.
I don't know how I'm doing today. I was in a great mood most of the day, I even made an outline for a paper I have to write in two weeks. Then I wasted two hours playing Total Annihilation, and made a little "To Do" list of all the "projects" and readings I can't get off my mind. It doesn't even include any LPing dreams or books outside of coursework, and it's seventeen items long. I've stopped being depressed about this, because that doesn't help. I'm just sitting here in an emotionless stall, trying to decide how to proceed.
