However, I absolutely love the SG's humbucking sound and it doesn't feel like you have a dead dear slung around your neck like other Gibsons (*cough* les paul *cough*), so if I hit a chord progression I really like and feel I need the extra bite I'll practice with the strat and move it to the SG.

In other words, that was a long way of saying that I'm a strat guy but I still love my SG and am very glad to have both guitars.
I am in agreement that a big part of the sg's draw is the weight. I am a big fan of Thinlines/Semi Hollow's though. That makes having a paul/tele styled guitar much easier on the shoulder. And then theres the Es-335 style which I pretty much only play sitting down (hail bb king)

Your lucky to have that Sg! Gogogog put a Bigsby on the bitch.
