Don't worry guys, it's all cool. So just a quick update:
Thursday was "Independence Day" in Palestine. Yes... you heard me, I don't get it either. I think the guy who smashed the window of Ahmad's SUV that evening might have also been upset over the premature celebrating.
It's starting to get cold here in Ramallah and the inside of our house is colder than outside, I'm scared for winter. And a shower that resembles a drooling camel isn't helping. Can I miss my American conveniences and be anti-America at the same time? I could really use a long American shower.
I met a guy who works at a shawarma place on Rukab St. who found an American passport on the street and asked me what should be done, like I'd know right? You'd think returning it to the US Consulate would be the best thing to do, but it's tough when you have to cross one of the largest checkpoints in the West Bank to get to there... something that's impossible without your passport... especially if you're Arab, which this guy was. So no thanks to the consulate, but rather to Ramallah's small-town-ness, though e-mails and word-of-mouth, we found the guy. It took 2 days.
