God is playing a joke on me

I have always said that I was not given daughters because I do not handle drama well. So here I am in Israel on this big journey in life and living with 4 girls between the ages of 20 and 27. One of the girls has adopted a kitten from the street. There are MANY feral cats in this city. Two of the girls are deathly afraid of the cat and there are screams whenever the cat comes near them. In a house this small, it is a frequent event. It has set the stage for drama in other areas too. I am trying to stay away from it all for several reasons. I am too old for it and I like cats. It will be interesting to see how the whole thing plays out. One of the terrified girls (my roommate actually) is leaving the first week of December so that should be fine. She is a nice girl but I've been promised the room to myself which will be good. She is an Israeli who moved to Canada about 8 years ago. She is studying physical therapy and is doing a 6 week internship. Another girl (a nurse) is from Finland and she too will be leaving the beginning of December. This leaves the 2 main drama queens and me. One is the 20 year old screamer and the other is the 24 year old cat owner. I will keep you posted on life in the house. I am thinking it could make a good reality show.

I worked the past 4 days and decided to get out tonight so I took the bus to Ben Yehudah Street. It is a popular area. The street is closed to cars and there are many shops and restaurants. It was nice but I've decided that it is really too much of a tourist area- not for us locals!

I hope all is well in Blogland! I miss everyone!
