Anya Christina Emmanuella Jenkins. Twenty years old. Born on the fourth of July — and don't think there weren't jokes about that my whole life, mister, 'cause there were. 'Who's our little patriot?' they'd say, when I was younger and therefore smaller and shorter than I am now.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And to redeem the sad, take a look at my niece's creation for Mother's Day.

That's so cool!

How little is your grownup size, Robin???

So I did get a lot of school work done today, but maybe not enough. UGH.

My last class is Wednesday, last paper is due Friday. I can't believe how whiny I am for only taking three classes this semester.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Grown-up size is 6 1/2-7.

My classes end Wednesday too. I've got stuff due through next Tuesday, though.

Don't even start! That's what I took this semester too, and some days it was like pulling teeth with a spoon.

Huh. It's smaller in kids? That fascinates me.

I have one assignment due (done), one final to take, one medium paper due (half done), and one big paper (half done). So, doable, as long as I actually do it! I'm still contemplating calling out from work tomorrow.

Yeah, but kid's size 13 is much smaller than kid's size 4, so I don't know WHAT'S going on.

I'd be contemplating that too, Jesse.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Kids sizes go from baby sizes up to 13, then start over again at 1. The bigger sizes, starting at 1 there, are technically "youth" sizes, and correspond roughly to mens sizes, extrapolated downward. So boys sizes and mens sizes are on the same scale pretty much, but girls sizes are about 1 1/2 to 2 numbers smaller than the equivalently sized womens shoes. (So, I wear a 5 or 6 in womens, but a 3 or 4 in kids.) Kids sizes used to stop at 4, but now a lot of companies go up to 6.

That shit's CRAZY.
