meet hoover, the newest addition to our fish family. vortex is now sulking in a corner. i guess he wanted all the slime to himself ;-p
today was a crazy day for the quinnado. he got to go to a bday party with daddy and sissy, where he acquired a 2nd degree burn on his hand and some sort of nasty looking abrasion on his leg. the source of the burn is known, the source of the abrasion is not. this afternoon, while coming home from the park with daddy and sissy, quinn took off for the elevators and got in just as one was closing. by himself. destination unknown. somehow, a family we know from the playground ended up with him. the mom heard a baby crying outside her front door and opened it to find quinn. she brought him to our door. i do not yet know how she knew what floor or flat we live in.
everyone has a headache now. except quinn. i got to escape much of the drama b/c i had a couple of social events to attend today: book club this morning, and then a nice dinner out with a friend. the book club event was my first in hong kong, and it was pretty interesting; i met several interesting people and hope to meet up with a couple of them for coffee/chat. while i was in central, i also did some fun shopping for the kids and josh, and i picked up a friend for vortex. the bing residnce now also includes hoover, another sucker fish who will help vortex keep the tank sparkly clean. dinner was great b/c i got to share some delicious thai food with my friend and catch up with her as she just returned to hong kong after a visit home.
it is currently 11:18 p.m. we normally go to sleep around 1 a.m. tonight, i think 11:30 is looking REALLY good. let's all hope that the hurriquinn is recategoried to an F1 tomorrow after today's repeated showings at level F5.
Holy cow, it sounds like poor Quinn had a really bad day!
