And now on trite treats

Ok.... after the last heavy episode I feel I should balance with some tripe... I mean trite.
So question..... Does the iminent approach of a beach vacation in Maui make you gain weight? Or does the reality of the looming date just make you more aware that you are indeed fat?

And why does a draining day of shopping in a mall with your boyfriend... ok, FOR your boyfriend, suddenly drain away into absolute pink bliss with a mani-pedi and wine tastes and cheese?

Isn't a shallow existence closer to truth? If being honest is being rightous.... and shallow is brutally honest.... ?
