Weight. What a pain. But it's all in your perspective, right?

A fellow SWWAN (a very attractive size 8) was groaning to me today about having to listen to her size-4, 97-pound, 5-foot-9 friend complain about being fat. "It's ridiculous," she said. "All I can dream about is Ho-Hos, and she's talking about going on a diet."
