too short

i've always been a shortie... always on the front row during grade school and high school class pictures, and have always had to have my jeans cut at least 5 inches (there goes the flare at the bottom!). and moving here has just made that fact much more clearer. i drown in a sea of relatively tall (and big) women in a crowd, and jeans are even harder to buy unless they come in petite sizes.

worst of all, aldo and i were looking at cribs last weekend and we realized we need one important crib feature: a drop-down railing because if not, i am apparently too short for the standard crib... i had to tiptoe to reach into the crib!

LOL.
