We have a little over a month left to house sit at our friend Tim’s house. Right before he left for Europe, some crazy women moved in above him and now us. I don’t know what they’re doing up there but it sounds like elephants stampeding and moving furniture at all hours.

Tonight, I was eating dinner with Vlad, our friend from Colorado, when I got a phone call from Andy. He was at the apartment. He wanted to know if there was an emergency number for the complex. Noises from the guest bathroom led him to discover there was water pouring down from the ceiling vent all over the toilet and floor. He ran upstairs to ask if the girls were having some sort of water problems. They said, “no” didn’t check and closed the door. Andy said they were acting “weird”.

He got a hold of maintenance, the guy went upstairs and said that the girl’s toilet was overflowing, there was two inches of water on the floor and they were laying on the couch oblivious. I’ve heard from maintenance and security that there’s a bunch of people living up there. A couchsurfer staying here last week said that they were speaking Hebrew. We’re thinking some sort of international heroin/prostitution ring.

We put a deposit down on our new place. We’ll be there from May 15th to August 15th.

three room mates, an ice cream truck, two cats, sparky the chihuahua, a pool and three months of new adventures that hopefully will not involve toilet water pouring from the ceiling.
