How tall could I have been?

I'm a guy and 5'2. I was born 6 weeks prematurely, and 5 pounds. When I was a baby, I was so small, I didn't even register on the height chart, and a Cabbage Patch Kid wore my shirts. I also had breathing problems and pneumonia and had to be in the NICU. My mom is 5'5, my dad is 5'8, my maternal grandfather was 5'11, my uncle and paternal grandfather are 5'8, and my maternal uncles were 5'11-6'0. My mom's cousins are 5'10-6'0 (one of them is a woman) and my girl cousin (my dad's sister's daughter) is 5'6. My sister was full-term, though, and she's 5'1.

How tall would I be if I were full-term?

Why am I short?

I'm a guy and 5'2. My mom is 5'5, my dad is 5'8, my maternal grandfather was 5'11, my uncle and paternal grandfather are 5'8, and my maternal uncles were 5'11-6'0. My mom's cousins are 5'10-6'0 (one of them is a woman) and my girl cousin (my dad's sister's daughter) is 5'6.

I was born 6 weeks early and 5 pounds, and when I was a baby, I was so small I didn't even register on the height chart.

Is it because I was premature, or just genetics? I feel like I should be taller.

Do you consider yourself Texan or southern?

Do you consider yourself Texan or southern first? I always think of myself as American first, Texan second, and Southern third. Is that weird?

[TOMT] [Commercial] Commercial for candy/granola bar where people are smiling while talking about a bad thing that happened to them.

I remember a commercial around 2005-2006 for a candy bar or a granola bar or something like that where people say that something bad happened to them but they're smiling while saying it. A businessman says "Today, I found out, I'm going to jail!", a rancher says "A horse kicked me, hard", and a woman says "My boyfriend left me, for my mother".

Trouble with meds.

After almost a year of being on name brand Concerta I got a generic on May 5. I texted both my doctor and my pharmacy to see if I could get back to Concerta, and they said yes, but they need a new prescription.

I called the pharmacy on Friday, and they said the doctor sent the prescription, but they can't fill it until my next fill next month.

I also told both my doctor and the pharmacy I wasn't doing well on the generic.
