Seriously, they're just material things. Move on, and next time let those damn cats on trees fall, they don't die anyway.

I once lost a pen but never clothing.

Eh, count your blessings. I recently put a big tear in the back of my best cashmere blazer, an Attolini.

I recently put a tear in a 10 day old leather jacket. I was able to have it repaired, but it will never look quite right again. I've decided that this just gives the jacket "character."

As to the question of the OP, I cope by buying more clothes.

Curse and buy new ones. Life can be a ***** at times but there is more to life than worring about this or even posting emails about it.

I think he has a right to post whatever he wants.

It seems all in good fun anyhow. Didn't notice any overly serious overtones, or missing the clothes obsessively like losing a loved one(which would be overdoing it)

No need to marginalize the OP's post.

Was it due to age of the jacket ?

Instead of burying them so that the dogs can dig them up later and play house, why not see if you can donate them to a local charity thrift store?

I'd say stay away from Goodwill and places like that; look for a Salvation Army store, as, unlike Goodwill, they are not in it for a profit, and so your clothes will be affordable to the people who really need them instead of becoming just another player in the evil system known as capitalism

Nope, the vent caught on one of those lever type door handles.

How do I cope? Sulking and crying usually. Not sure if that counts as "coping" however!

If you're going to bust out the kilts, I think "Oh Danny Boy" is more appropriate
