Re:

AlienFemale,

You are a princess, like every other woman out there, and don't ever let anyone tell you differently!

You're blessed with height, meaning you don't have to stand on counters to get stuff down from the top shelves. You can get in and out of trucks without having to climb. Men don't have to stoop down to look you in the eye. And pants and skirts are made to fit your long legs. 

Being vertically challenged (I'm not quite 5'2, and I don't have any idea how many meters that is!), the best I can say is that I don't bump my head very often. And I've built an excellent relationship with my tailor, who takes about 10 inches of fabric off the legs of every pair of pants I buy!

Re: Sira

Naut, you never fail to make me smile! I'll have to remember, if I'm ever in the position where I need to fall into bed - perhaps sleeping on the couch would be safer in that situation!

I had to double check with Mark, but apparently an "air vehicle" is a truck with air brakes - or air suspension...something like that, anyways. As far as I know, he's not allowed to fly planes! Oh, and he says Albertan's do talk funny, but since he's from Newfoundland, he's excluded from that group...I'll let you draw your own conclusions on that point

 Well, now I know why I never feel like a princess. I am 1.85m tall, so it's impossible for me to climb down from any bed

A tall bed? I dunno, there are occasions where it is easier for me to fall into bed, climbing might present difficulties...

And Mark's 'permit to drive an air vehicle'? You guys talk funny in Alberta! Here in Ontario we call that 'getting a pilot's licence to fly a plane'...

And I hope you get a nice kittie at the pound...
