Then there were all the friends that would call me "elf" or "midget" or "shortie" constantly because I'm 5'1".
A couple years ago I was taking a medicine that made me gain about 20-25 lbs and there was a coworker that would constantly ask me if I was pregnant. That got old very quickly. |

I've got a bunch more too. I'll have to share a little at a time~pretty much how I live my life. Full of craziness!
