random means "having no definite aim or purpose," (1655), taken from "at random" (1565), "at great speed" (thus, "carelessly, haphazardly"). In 1980s college student slang, it somehow, and sadly, acquired a distinct sense of "inferior, undesirable." (Online Etymology Dictionary, Douglas Harper) Well, okay, fine, Mr. Online Etymology Dictionary person, but THIS is the 21st Century. It's a whole new ball of wax.
Almost forgot to tell you - I finally got a coat. It's just-above-my-knee length, with two big patch pockets, a hint of swing and fabulous bell sleeves (see detail). Whaddya think?

That jacket is puuuuurfect for you. I love bell sleeves. Almost bought myself a new Odd Molly blouse but decided that the kids needed dinner this week.
so happy that fabulous coat found you!
it is very well suited to you and looks toasty and snazzy to boot!
