This online thing. It can be pretty weird sometimes. Like, I sit here and talk about my life, my family, and yet you don’t really know me. Since I’m ancient and have been around since pre-historic chat room times, I was raised on an anonymous computer situation. Because of that, I don’t often put in pictures of my family and I even more rarely say a name. For this one time, I’m going to break my golden rule.
I am Anna. I was named for my grandmothers, both killed in the Holocaust. My grandparents met in a work camp in Russia during World War 2. It is a Hebrew name, natch, and it means favor or grace. Neither of which traits, not surprisingly, I do not tend to portray. Go figure, but they got it right
Nail. Head.
And, just cuz its kinda cool…
I look forward to meeting you all!

Please to meet you, Anna. I remember when the internet was all about anonymity, but then came Facebook. š
I was named after my dad, John. Turns out, I have a masculine name, with all that suggests. But I found this interesting:
