With her pristine face grimacing because the Lululemon bag is out of stock, she raises her glass of Chardonnay to her nose and inhales deeply.
 
“First world problems indeed,” she smiles, pearls shining.

    I've been thinking so much lately about "first world problems." It's all about perspective.
