See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Both your grandparents are very striking, Shir!

The picture of your grandmother probably in Greece is definitely Greece, almost definitely in front of the Acropolis in Athens. Which I'm pretty sure of because somewhere I have a picture of myself a little over 20 years ago standing in what looks like exactly the same spot. I recognized it instantly. Your grandmother looks much more glamourous than I did, though.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

We're on day 3 of fever. Time to call the doctor?

Yeah, that doesn't sound good! Although if it's a virus, all they are going to say is wait it out, anyway. Any signs of anything bacterial?

My only symptom is fever. So, not really.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

It's a grand gift to your descendents to be able to properly identify pictures and who was in them. Which reminds me that I have a boatload of old snapshots that I'd better sit my aunt and Mom down and make them identify... soon.

Ha! As a wedding gift for my brother, I took a ton of old family photos from my mom's side and my dad's side and scanned them and made a photo book for him.

Come to find out, a couple of years after the fact, that one of the old pictures my dad gave me, of 2 older gentlemen, is probably NOT family; Dad's comment was "I have NO idea who they are -- I don't think they're part of the family! Maybe they were friends of your grandfather's."

So my brother's "family" photo book has 2 strangers in it. That made me laugh and laugh and laugh.

Ugh. It's just so exhausting, IME.

I think that once a fever lingers for more than a couple of days, that *can* (but isn't always) a sign of a bacterial infection.

Yes.

Found another bunch of photos, including the 1939 one. Gonna scan and upload them now.

Shir, those pictures are fascinating. You have an extremely photogenic family. Your grandmother looks like a daughter of Ingrid Bergman.

Alas, some things didn't pass on to the rest of us...

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Shir, those pictures are amazing.
