If I could be one of the emoticons on Rumor Queen right now, I'd be the rocker guy who has his fist of rock up in the air doing the head banging move.
I am so very proud to bring you----

OUR ITINERARY!
Thursday June 21
Fly from our city to Chicago at 7 freakin AM. Ouch. Who is going to take us to the airport at that hour? No one. Will have to get a cab.
Fly from Chicago to Hong Kong. 15 hour flight. I'm either thrilled I will have 15 hours to do nothing whatsoever or freaked out that I have 15 hours to do nothing whatsoever.
Arrive in Hong Kong at 345pm the next day. Go to hotel. SLEEP!!!
Saturday June 23rd
Tour Hong Kong with our friends who live there. Go back to hotel. SLEEP. Look how much I am looking forward to sleeping. All caps. I REALLY like to sleep. I've got drugs for that. No kids? I can take drugs to help me sleep. I will sleep!
Sunday June 24th
Fly from Hong Kong to Nanchang, our child's province. Check into the hotel. Not sure which one yet, I'll update this when I know. Hang out. Swim. SLEEP.
Monday June 25th
GOTCHA DAY!!!
I'm a Gotcha Day sayer. So it will be known by us as Gotcha Day. Metcha sounds too much like the last name of someone I used to know and didn't like. Family day? Everyday is family day in this house. Gotcha it is!
Not sure on times or location- will update that later.
**** I have just learned that Sunday might be Gotcha Day! Again, I'll update when I know more.*****************
Tuesday June 26th
Baby day. All baby, all day. We'll probably just sit and stare at her all day long. YES!!
Weds June 27th
Still in Nanchang. Baby is tired of us staring at her all day. We'll be out on the town.
Thursday June 28th
Still in Nanchang. Will be antsy at this point. Hopefully healthy. Hopefully not puking or sneezing or scabie-ing.
Friday June 29th
Fly to Guangzhou. Check into White Swan or The Westin. Not sure yet. We'll know soon. Both give us the Asian Barbie and both have play rooms. I'm ok with either.
