Anyway, while on holiday with my sister and her husband, I encountered two objects that made me feel slightly better about my situation.
This literal giant was housed near the giant penis armor of Henry VIII. (That made me feel small, too, by the way. Maybe I should pay more attention to all those spam emails I receive with offers to help me grow my penis larger...) Even with my hiking shoes, my head only floats a bit above the 5 foot mark.
Further, when a chocolate rabbit at Herrod's is about my height, what's to complain about? If Dana were not leaning in to take a bite, I think they'd be about the same height. I could literally eat my height (if not weight) in chocolate. Yum.
A des (or suzanne) sized chocolate bunny would definitely be convenient. I could just lean over and take a bite where I was.
ReplyDeleteI suffer from this same delusion. I'm 5'1" but people think I'm taller than I really am. Living in a city with a large Asian population, I'm by no means the shortest person I encounter on a regular basis.
ReplyDeleteI told a guy (whom I liked) that I was really small before I met him, but when I met him, I was "too big". At least I think that's why he didn't like me back. Whip out your tiny violins.
When did you write this? The two of you look the same height to me.
ReplyDeleteAlex - I wrote this on Friday. About a month ago, I learned that I am approximately 1 - 1.5 inches taller than she is.
ReplyDeleteWarrior - I not only appear taller than I am, but I am actually taller than I am, if that makes sense, which I know it doesn't. :)
Des - Thank goodness I have no chocolate bunny here now, as I would like devour it in a fit of rage that I would very quickly regret.
