Is 5'1" really that short...?

Okay I know I am shorter than average.  Although recently I seem taller...maybe better posture from running.  Who knows.  Anyways last I was measured, I was 5'1" - ish.  Lately, I am really starting to feel insanely short.


1)  Went to a Movie Tavern to see Rogue One.  My feet didn't reach the floor!  I could swing my legs without consciously lifting my feet.  WTH?!?!

2)  Went to use the potty at a new restaurant.  My feet didn't reach the f**king floor.  I felt like a kid learning how to pee pee on the potty!  Did I drink the drink from Alice in Wonderland?!?!

3) Went to Godiva for some gifts.  Two amazonian women walked in.  I legit came up to their shoulders.  And they were in flats.  They stepped on me twice each.  After the last time the older lady, with a Russian accent (I think) said, "I am so serry, you are jest so tiny"Ummmm thanks...?

4)  I got put in the front with the kids at a Christmas display because I was staring into the back of someones shoulder and the people around me felt bad....
 
5)  My friend is just shy of 5'9" and I take two steps to her one.  Running together is...interesting.

6)  People joke that the seat cushion in my car that I have to keep me from getting a back ache is there so I can see over the steering wheel.....and truthfully when I don't sit on it, I do feel like I can't see over the steering wheel. 

7)  I tried to drive my friends 4x4...I had to move the steering wheel down...and still only just saw over the dash....

8)  I actually got stopped and sort of measured for a ride...like they looked at me real hard, then let me pass.  I think its because my brother in law is so f**king tall I look like a kid next to him....

9) When I wear heels it trips people out because I am suddenly near eye level

10) I am perpetually used as an arm rest
11)  I have to climb on the counters to reach the top shelves when I am cooking or shopping

12)  I don't own a pair of pants or leggins that aren't at least 2"-3" too long. . . . .

BONUS:  When I get angry people think its "cute"
NOTE - I'm not complaining really, I just think its funny because I never thought 5'1" was THAT short....
