For the first time in my life...

I knew what it's like to feel short. I am about 5'9". Last night, I went to a get-together at a friend's house and one of the guests there was almost seven feet tall. I actually had to look UP at him to talk, and I've never done that before. It was a weird sensation for me. I can't imagine what it'd be like for someone even shorter than I am. His wife is about 5'4".
