I know.
This is 100% ridiculous.

Jim was telling me the story about how his dad was talking to his mom on the phone or something and mentioned Jim's girlfriend. Apparently his choice of words was "big."

Now, seeing as 95% of the time I am totally good with stories and don't take things to heart - Jesus. There are moments. Like "amazon woman," which will never leave my brain until quite possibly - I die, or "big."
My mom is not a small lady certainly. My siblings are tall and skinny and I always felt that I got the fat genes.

Okay, okay. Ridiculous for ME - to feel this way. But there's no changing how we feel, even if we know logically what reality looks like.
So this story - apparently by "big," he meant "tall." Well, if you mean tall, say tall. Big conjures this image of how I'm chubby and not that this really what matters... but for a moment it tweaked me out.

I'm a "big" girl now, huh? *sighs* I know. You've heard enough from my whiney ass.
I cannot wait until the end of August. Or even any other week than this week.
It's been rough on me for whatever reason.

Jim was quite shocked that I took it this way completely. He thought it was as ridiculous as my mom telling him he was "special," and meaning that he rode the short bus - opposed to, well - someone who means something to me.

Which I then informed him about my "short" complex. All my life I have gone around as the short kid in the family. Thus, I totally have a short complex. What do you do when your sister is just shy of six feet tall and your brother is six-four? You feel short. So is it really that I have short-fat complex? :X Anyhow. Probably just raging whoremoans or something.

*sighs and goes back to work*

ya know.. sometimes you drive me nuts.. you don't seem to realize that you could gain 30 pounds, and still not even come close to being chubby...

*shakes head*

I wouldn't describe you as either. Big OR tall. I just don't think of you as being tall.
