See, in my fantasy, when I'm kissing you... you're kissing me. It's okay. I can wait.

Spike's Bitches 30: Going on Thirteen  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Long-handled grabby thing is a recipe for knockover disaster for me. I do have a stepstool, but I don't like how it looks, and hide it far away.

I don't have much choice. I'm barely 5'3" (5'2 1/2" if you believe my GP's nurse. I don't choose to), and I'm the tall one in my household.

Your plan has a tremendous amount of potential, though.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I have one that's fairly ugly, but it folds up and fits in between my fridge and the wall. I use it with frequency.

Epic, I'm 5'3", too. We buy our underwear in the same place and are the same height. We are TWINS!!

eta: AND! I am the tall one in my household too!!! Of course, the only other one in my household is a cat, but still, I'm WAY taller than him.

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

We have a stepladder in the kitchen, since the BF (aka "Tally McHeightypants") puts everything very very high. Since he does 95% of the cooking, however, I don't mind that I can't reach half our stuff without climbing.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

At 5'8, I'm mildly resentful when I need to get stuff off the top shelf. On the other hand, this kitchen has more cupboard space than I can properly use (well, if you don't count that there's nowhere to put the mop or the garbage can), so I'm not up there that often, and I mostly just kneel on the counter.

Can I have some of your cupboards? I have very little storage space, which is why I use my stepladder all the time. I have to use every bit of shelf space I have.

Always wondered when I'd meet my doppleganger. I guess the answer is...2 weeks from today. Meep!

Oh, by the by, did I ever confirm my spot in your room on Saturday after Prom? 'Cuz, I meant to. Just y'know, blonde and stuff.

Nope, but you just did, so it's good.

Just y'know, blonde and stuff.

SEE??? I'm blonde, too. TWINS, I tell ya.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I'm 4'11'', which I think Dave seems to have forgotten, because I was going to make the salad and I just noticed that the salad bowl is way up high too.

I'm about 5'10 today. It's so fun now that I can walk in a wider variety of heels.
