My only symptom is fever. So, not really.

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

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.

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

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...

Seriously, I'm almost ashamed at how much I'm looking forward to watching the debate tomorrow night. Call it anticipatory schadenfreude. I'm going to make popcorn.

She may do pretty well in the debate. If she just has answers that are coherent, she'll be exceeding expectations. Has the expectation bar ever been set this low?
