She starts out as a happy large-set woman who marries a man she meets named Herbie Morse. All is great for the first few weeks but soon they start getting on each others nerves and the marriage goes sour. Hazel turns to drinking to deal with her ever-distant husband but refuses to leave under the guise that she can fix the marriage. One day Herbie walks out and never comes back. Hazel turns to her new friends and another man named Ed, however her and Ed don't work out either. This leads to strings of dating and drinking with friends.

| Big Blonde / int_7eebe99c | comment |
The Alcoholic: Most major characters are alcoholics. Hazel starts out as hating alcohol but her first husband Herbie, who was an alcoholic himself, turns her into a social drinker. This soon spiraled into full-on alcoholism for Hazel. She couldn't go on unless she was buzzed enough to forget her problems. | |

Big Beautiful Woman: Hazel has a constant string of admirers and lovers. She was even a model in the 1910s. According to the text, during that time larger models were preferred to the skinnier ones of the '20s. | |

Big Fun: Deconstructed. Hazel starts out as a genuinely fun-loving woman but over time she becomes depressed. She finds out that her friends and lovers dislike her when she's sad, so she has to pretend to be happy. | |
