Abnormal

Apparently I have ape arms. I'm not kidding. I have been shopping for a new coat for Christmas and 99% of them aren't long enough for my arms until I get an XXL. Have I looked ape-like all these years and no one has bothered telling me? I haven't shopped for a coat in years, and I don't remember having this problem before, is it possible that my arms are still growing and will reach my knees when I'm 80? Seriously, this is getting frustrating!

I think this is sweet justice because Jess used to make fun of me for abnormally short arms.

LOL.....nice comment John! Jess, don't listen to him. It's the coats that are changing...not you!!! Just keep telling yourself that! :)

BTW, I just noticed that your blog header is very similar to mine! HAHAHA NICE!

p.s. at least if john has short arms and yours are abnormally long your kids have a good shot at perfect arms :)

You are hiliarous! I would be blaming your problem on the coats too. I always have a hard time getting one that fits and has long enough sleeves. Good luck on your search!

That is funny that you think your arms are too long. At least your friends aren't calling you "The Missing Link" yet -- Kenny's friends called him that; now that kid had long arms!

I've never noticed that you have long arms, but you can bet that I will definitely be looking at both your long arms and John's short arms next week.

I and most of my sisters have always had the long arm problem, too. It doesn't matter if coats are a bit big, but long sleeved shirts and blouses are always a problem.

Ok, this is a problem for me at least 99% of the time...but in my case, EVERYTHING is too short! :)

Welcome to my world . . .
