You have only one problem. Why don't you get that dipstick of a husband of yours to buy you something other than that old, ratty, moth-eaten, white rabbit skin? (Just kidding, I knew all along it was rat fur!) Come to think of it you probably would look even better if you wore nothing. Thanks for always cheering me up. My love to you both." Two horizontal folds and in very good(+) condition.
