i'm tall. i've been tall since 9th grade. i used to get stupid comments from my high school guy friends like..."hey suzanne, how long does it take you to shave your legs?"
yes, seriously...they would say that. was it sexual harassment? was it a compliment? i still don't know...i do know it confirmed my choice not to date any of them.
all this to say, since i've been tall for so long, i don't get to have the legs-dangling-off-furniture-without-your-feet-touching-the-floor experience. it looks so fun, pretending to be a little kid, kicking your legs in a care free way.
well, that is all different now. my office chair has a lift on it. a lift that takes me high enough that my feet dangle. unfortunately i don't completely fit under my desk when full height is engaged, so the experience is reserved for non-computer times. it is currently as high as i can get it...so high that i can't push it under my desk when i'm not sitting on it.
and by the way high school guy friends...the joke is on you. i don't even shave my legs.

I would have never thought of someone missing the fact that their legs could not dangle down! Too funny. As a short person I rarely do not have my legs dangling. This is why I work in the threes room at church.

I guess I figured everyone experienced the dangly feet thing at some point. Meanwhile, I have to have a step stool to reach the clothing at the top part of my closet. True Story.
Long legs always beats short legs though. Plus,(when you do have time to shave) I'm guessing that you probably also look substancially better in dresses and skirts then your shorter friends.
Okay, this has nothing to do with being short or tall - but I saw a Cedarville yearbook at my friend Julie's house this weekend and you and Dan were in it! You were thumb wrestling or something in a picture.
We were babysitting their kids and looking through a yearbook, made us miss you guys and Jaden!
I have yet to find a chair with a lift that lifts high enough to lift my feet off the ground. I imagine that it must feel like those dreams when you fly. The only time I can get my feet to dangle is if I sit on the kitchen counter. but I don't think that it's the same. You're lucky.
Ashlee says that she misses Jaden. I do too.
