Michael and Xiao Ping.  His sunglasses are along the back of his head

We are to pack for our trip to the Tibet border today.  "Take clothes for one week and make do.  Layer. It's gonna be cold,"  says Michael.
We go to Xiao Yee's.  Soon Xiao Yun brings Nathan to the apartment.  He's been in Taiwan with friends the past two days.  He saves me from a very long day while the sisters meet to discuss the trip.  They shorten it to two weeks.  Who knows what the final result will be?  I don't even have to care.  I am completely without responsibility.  It's making me crazy!
Da Ping arrives later.  He is Michael's dearest family member - a busy radiologist.  He offers me a complete physical exam.  I really don't feel it's necessary but it might be interesting.
