I Wish I Was A Little Bit Taller And New Survey Says I’m Not Alone

Mitchell stopped by today. He's tall.

At 5'2'', I do wish I was a little bit taller. And apparently, I am not alone.

A survey done on a British website, YouGov, asked people if they would want to be taller, shorter, or stay the same.

And the results are:

•  45% of both women and men say they'd want to be taller.
• 7% of women and 3% of men would like to be shorter.
• 44% of men and 39% of women want to stay the same.

I am surprised that so many people would stay the same. I suppose it is a good thing that some people are happy with the height they are, especially since there isn't much you can do about it.

However, I would totally be taller if I could. Not much, just like 3 inches. 3 inches would make my life so much easier. Jeans shopping would be easier, reaching things would be easier, I wouldn't be overweight for my height anymore. Life would be good.

But until then, I guess I'll just be 5'2''.

All this discussion on height reminds me of a song.
