I'm not sure if it's the

Detox that I was trying to do... or if it's having quit the detox after only 2 days... but I am feeling a bit more human today at last! I guess it's the two cups of coffee pumping through my system.

The flat situation is still dire but that is no surprise. Lets not kid ourselves...

I'm looking forward to London next week (that is if they let me in). I simply refuse to pay the 1.10 euro fee to ring the madrid embassy only for them to re-confirm that passport processing takes 10 working days and a max of 5 weeks. I know i can not get my new passport back before I travel... there is no use draining my energy fighting a lost cause.

lost causes... something i should be very concious of.

sigh.

bring on the better times please.
