Thursday night!!

H is short too.  I had growth hormone deficiency, so I had to take growth hormone shots every night growing up.  Without them I would probably only be about 3'10"-4', so I'm happy I made it to 5'.

MuSu, how tall are you?

The coach of the Seahawks just gave Marshawn Lynch skittles after his touchdown just like Marshawns mommy used to do when he was a kid playing football.

Haha omg I found this photo when looking for other giant pictures... its from HS and it was on "80s day" for homecoming so excuse the outfit. But OMG. This is one of my best friends and actually one of my BMs, lol look at how ridiculously huge I am:

Megbo2012

Most people say I'm perfectly proportioned so if I was by myself maybe I'd be mistaken for being taller? But I have big legs because I'm a mid distance runner so maybe I actually look stubby. Who knows.

musicalsunlight

C, I am 5'11. But my legs are really long so I always look taller than that usually. Now that my brothers and cousins are all growing, I feel like the short one in the family hah.

PetalPockets2012

Megbo you do not look big legged or stubby to me. At all.

crash2729

Wow, Musu! 

You look so tall compared to her in that picture! 

bbuckner984

I cannot get past the outfit, sorry musu. 

kcs I am sorry that you had to go through that. Puts things in perspective.

Nothing too serious. He is a perfectionist. Our lights weren't working because a bulb was out. He went all cray cray. We had to go to the store and buy bulbs. He is trying to fix it now.Meanwhile I'm outside enjoying my smoke break. He knows better than to take his crazy out on me but still, it's fuucking annoying.

<div>Maybe stubby is the wrong word. I just have jacked legs. I'll try to find a terrible picture better exemplifying that, haha.  And maybe more of my shortness. I race against lots of tall people.</div>

musicalsunlight

haha I know I am actually cracking up at how ridiculously huge I look lol. And yeah, bbuck, the outfit is ridiculous haha. We really got into our themed days in HS, lol.

[QUOTE]People I know who are 5'6"-5'8" consider themselves tall.  Not super tall or anything but taller I guess.
Posted by Megbo2012[/QUOTE]

I'm 5'6, but considered tall for my family.  My dad only has an inch or 2 on me and I've got about 3 inches on my mom.  Both of my sisters are shorter than me as well.

WildRumpus

Hey ladies! I'm sitting around, doing homework and waiting for H to get home from work. I'm contemplating dinner...mac & cheese or sloppy joes?

kcscejal

Oh, it really wasn't that bad.  I just had very bruised thighs.  The needles were tiny, and pretty much killed any needle phobia.  For childhood problems it's a pretty minor one to have.  I'm sure my insurance company loved me though.  Those things are crazy expensive.

PetalPockets2012

Mac & Cheese!

Ciaram22

I have silence here. Well and snoring. Finally.

Jill I love the sig pic!

kcscejal

My "little" sister didn't get the tiny genes apparently.  Excuse the duck face, it was supposed to be a joke with my sister, but she tricked me and just smiled like a normal person.

Megbo2012

Ksc my doctor thought I might need those shots but waited til the last second and thankfully I grew a few inches sporadically.  Then they were worried I'd never hit puberty.  I went to the doctors just for a check-up twice a year because of the height/weight thing and didn't find out that it wasn't normal til last year. 

musicalsunlight

It always surprises me when people will ask me a favor based on my height, when my height hadn't been discussed prior to that moment (used to happen at places that I worked a lot). Like, being asked to reach something, etc. I forget that people notice that kind of thing even when they don't say anything. It makes me feel weird because I hope people aren't thinking I look awkward. I always feel so awkward.

kcscejal

They decided I needed them when I didn't really grow at all between kindergarten and 2nd grade.  I still weighed about 32 pounds in 2nd grade.

musicalsunlight

aww Jal you look so tiny and purdy.

kalpi108

Haha I love photos where that happens, Jal, where one person goes silly and the other goes normal. I remember learning about those growth hormones in high school but I've never met anyone who had to take it. I think you look lovely in your sig pic and still would even if you were shorter. And Musu, you are comically taller than your friend but you are also beautiful and would be even if you were taller haha so I guess I'm saying as fun as it is to discuss our heights, we're all pretty damn beautiful no matter what the numbah.

Oreo, that would stress me out haha, I'm cool with stuff being imperfect. Hopefully he's over it by the time you go back inside.

WildRumpus

Thanks Ciara!

MuSu, I would probably be one of those people. I've been known to ask people to reach things for me at the grocery store.

PetalPockets2012

One time in Walmart a lady said to FI as we were passing by "Hey Shorty! You, Shorty. Can you get that for me?" The lady was in one of those motorized chairs and needed to get something off the shelf. FI looked at her and kept on walking.

Megbo2012

Ok so that took lots of digging.  I may DD the one of my team just because...yah. I'm the littlest one.

DDed

Me running at the Armory with some tall girls

musicalsunlight

Thanks Kalpi, I agree that we are all very beautiful no matter the height. I was happy to see your face more closely on FB and see how lovely you are! You and your FI will make such cute exotic babies.

Megbo2012

Petals I would have laughed in her face then probably cried in the bathroom. 

PetalPockets2012

FI is usually pretty calm but he was like wtf? She thinks calling me short means I will help her. I was confused the whole time since I didn't really realize she was talking to him until it was over. I never think random people I don't know are talking to me...because I don't know you.

kalpi108

We order our dance/sports/exercise Kinect games from Amazon, Holly, and the prices were reasonable.

Why, thanks, Musu. I'm glad my face hasn't disappointed my knottie FB friends so far Hope FI and I have babies someday and I'm sure we'll think they're beautiful no matter what haha but it will be fun to see what that combo will look like.

PetalPockets2012

Since I've never seen Kalpi face I'm just imagining my own way that her babies will look.
