Just now on the way home from the store I was struck with Beijing Belly. Or should we call it Taiping Tummy? How about Mao's Revenge? Whatever we decide to call it, it demands that I hurry home asap and get to the bathroom.

Just as I sit down, my cell phone rings. The boys start scrambling around trying to find it. Suddenly it turns into a WWF type wrestling match over the phone. Connor gets it first and tries to hand it to me through the slats in the bathroom door. Zack and Petey come barreling towards him and he takes off screaming "No, my phone! My give it to mama!"

Meanwhile, I'm yelling "Just hand it to me!", amongst other things like "Stop chasing him" and "Boys, calm down!" Finally, the door is opened and the phone is handed in.

It's on. The call was answered 56 seconds ago. The whole thing was shared with the caller.

*giggle*

Mao's Revenge

That gives me some extra cause for concern in planning a visit. I kind of like Mao's revenge as a reference. Its the same as Montezuma's revenge in Mexico. Along the same lines as " Mao's Revenge" what would it be called if you had a fever, nausea, headache, and diarrhea? Would it be the " Gang of Four"? What a " revolting" development. Bill

who was it calling?

A bill collector no doubt. I wonder if they have bill-collectors in China?
