If I could choose to change some characteristic from my physical appearance, I would definitely want to lose at least 2ins. in height, if not more. Being 6'7" more or less, depending on who is doing the measuring, causes a variety of challenges. I have a difficulty finding clothes that fit properly. I typically need to be fitted for them, which is more expensive and time consuming. Finding a comfortable bed where my legs don,t hang 6" below the foot of it, is also a chore. I dislike being constantly asked about how tall I am, only to have it be disputed and told that I am either taller or shorter then I have stated. It doesn,t end there the majority of the time, because then they usually want to get out the measuring tape, as if to test my honesty. Getting into a car, especially a foreign one is interesting. Knocking items off the wall with my elbows when I think that I have more room to maneuver than I do, or striking my head on some low hanging ostacle that I didn,t notice. Most of all, I hate going out to a club or bar to relax and enjoy myself with friends or a date, only to hassled by some short, loud, drunken, obnoxious jerk with a small man or Napoleonic syndrom, in an attempt to ruin my evening. My guess is that they are trying to prove how tough they are to themselves and their cronies, by attempting to take on the biggest guy they can find. This, I can do without.
