Oh yes, it's all genetics' fault!  Whilst shopping, I quite frequently
mutter curses to my mother and her side.  And blouses?  I thought
those were hard--but they are NOTHING compared to suits and prom dresses!
It's really disheartening when you are nice size when you buy jeans
then you go to find a dress and have to move up 2/3 sizes just so the
dang thing will zip!
And suits?  Forget it.  I went up to the blimmin' LARGEST normal-size
they sell--the skirt was practically falling off, but the top wouldn't
even zip.  EVER HEAR OF ELASTIC??  Grrrrrrrrrrrr...I hate shopping. 
Maybe that's why I like shoes to much.

Or you could be short-ish and this. :-D  Always fun stuff.

I've really got to stop complaining!  Anyway, I wish life was fair: I
could dish some of what's on top down to the bum for a bit more shape.
 Or perhaps donate some to those less fortunate?  I've already taken a
few requests from friends with opposite problems.
