5'8. And a short one at that. Hec might be the only person ever to estimate me taller than fact. Short for a tall person, I am. The guys I've been with vary from my height to 6'6. Really tall makes me drool by reflex, but in reality I've never chosen a tall guy over (ahem) a shorter one.
I noticed at a recent party one guy brought a woman that really looked like his ex wife. I can't help it--that stuff creeps me out. The guys I've been with look so different it's laughable. God bless Benetton. One guy I know was so hung up on one of his exes he only went for women that looked like her or were related to her (he found ringers that looked more like her than anyone in her family did). MOVE ON.
I guess people have their types (I don't, in the end), but there are types and then there are dopplegangers.
Oh! Perkins! Got pies! Now that I've opened the first box I need to finish it before I leave early Wednesday.
I'm going off the meds that made me gain weight, but that mightn't make a difference if people are this nice to me.

YAY! Were they wrapped in paper (first try) or a box (second try)?
Second try, Perkins. I'm pissed that one attempt disappeared.
Me too. Maybe you'll have them when you get back though.
I'm a tall 6' 2", and I frequently forget that I am taller than ND. Four inches taller, even. Though in my defense, I tend to slouch, and ND's hair gives him a couple of inches of illusionary height.
I'm 4'10". Though at the doctor today, they said 4'11". Several people who are around 5'1" or so have said that they thought I was about their height, and didn't believe I was actually shorter until we stood up and they actually looked to see. So I seem taller? I'm not sure.
I just finished reading The Tales of Beedle the Bard. That was fun.
I don't pay much attention to height and I find myself frequently attracted to people both taller and shorter than I am. I'm 5'7 1/2 and I've dated a guy who was 6'4" and a couple of gals under 5'5". The guy who's been giving me chills at work these days is probably 5'5" or 5'6".

For whatever reason, this image made me giggle. I may be a wee bit hopped up on caffeine after trying to fight this migraine all day.
Is it still bothering you, Barb? I hope not.
Doctor gave me meds so I wouldn't have to go to the ER. Knock me on my ass he said they would.
Harrumph.
Not so much anymore, ita. Caffeine, meds, and a hot shower finally seemed to have shaken it loose. What's left behind is what I call the "ghost." The vestiges of what was there, almost like it's lingering, waiting for a chance to reestablish.
What'd the doc give you that he thought would knock you on your ass?
