used to take us whatever house had whatever disease at the time. I thought I'd had them all until I got pregnant with my daughter, they told me I never had the German measles. I didn't understand that at the time. Years later it dawned on me that she might have been pregnant when they were spreading that though our neighborhood.
Ah the good old days
