I AM NOT !

Ok, lucky you I keep getting an error message when I try to sign into the other blog site, so you get to hear yet another rant.Tonight, a co-worker comes into use the computer while I am at work. He's like "Can I ask you a question?" So, me expecting some question about homework or work related thing and am just a tad taken a back when instead he asks in all seriousness
"How short do you have to be to be considered a midget?"
I just gave him THE (wow do you EVER think before you speak) look. See, I'm not exactly tall (very not tall) and it's a little annoying.
I know not much of a thing to rant about. It's just that well, *sniff, sniff* short people have feelings too.

Sorry, Mai.
Maybe you should introduce him to Ebo's Ice Cream Guy.

I believe it's 4'10".
I know this 'cause my mom is 4'11" and people always ask her 'cause they're rude. I'm not all that tall either, so, anyway I guess that's all.
I'm a giant at work though. Me at my towering 5'2". Three of my best coworkers are under 5'. So I feel all big and helpful reaching things and then I find I can't reach something and have to ask this other girl who is 6'. Not so tall anymore am I?

I'd love to say I feel your pain, but I'm like 5'll, so...Yeah, I'm a sasquatch. Anyway, that doesn't excuse the guy from bein' an ass. Next time you see him ask him how little his 'thing' has to be before he's considered a woman.

Well, I guess I'm tall compared to you (I claim 5'2" with my cowboy boots :) ), but I still feel short most of the time. Especially when I'm having to hem scrubs for work, or find a dress that actually fits me on top and doesn't drag the floor on the bottom. Anyway, that guy's a jerk. I like Chosen's reponse best!

Yes, MG you are a might taller than me. Oh what I wouldn't give to reach the 5' mark. I know what you mean about the heming too. Apparently, clothing designers think we find it amusing to trip over the edge of our jeans. Try going into a store and asking for 29" inseam, I usually get pointed toward the jr/children section!
