Okay I know I'm *checks time on phone*... two years late to the party here but I've been stuck in bed again (yay chronic pain/illness!) and your snarks have been keeping me very well entertained so I wanted to say thank you for that, that I ADORE YOUR RATTIES and you're an amazing rat mama and just that you generally rock. *hedgehugs from me and my three kids with quills - Nigel, Quilliam and Athena*
Also... while it's one of the least of the billion things that annoy the crap out of me about Anita and LKH, her CONSTANT focus on how itty-bitty she is (especially since 5'3" is average) is definitely on the list. Listen, Anita/LKH... I'm five foot nothing. I am shorter than average and shorter than most of my friends. (But not all of them. One of my friends is 4'10" - and SHE isn't obsessed with her height (or lack thereof) either!) And guess what? NEITHER OF US WASTE HOURS EACH DAY ON A MENTAL MONOLOGUE ABOUT IT! I keep a couple step stools handy and carry on with life. I live in this body, so don't particularly think of it as tall or short, it's just me. I think most everyone feels that way. Sometimes, I'll see a pic with friends someone tags me in on facebook and think "Holy crap, I'm a midget!" but then it just kinda fades from my awareness again. But then, I don't think ANYONE is as self-obsessed, self-congratulating and self-serving as Anita.
Whew! Okay, I'm done now. *goes back to happily lurking and reading*
Sharing some thoughts a little late. :)
