viva espana

Last night was my sixth night of shitty sleep. And almost the worst yet. I think (I hope) I've given up and won't even bother worrying about it tonight. There are a trillion people I need to email and call so that's my decided nighttime activity. If I can't sleep, you may get a call from me this evening! And hopefully I won't cry.

The strangest thing about all this insomnia is that it hardly affects my days. I've been having a lovely time. Today was a national holiday - 'Viva Espana!' - and it was all a little odd and there was a parade (more of a march, maybe? or a rally?) of the super patriotic with Spanish flags and chanting, "I am proud to be Spanish!" (in Spanish). I wouldn't have thought much of it if we hadn't been warned about possible violence against immigrants on this day.

Ran into some friends and walked around admiring Spain. It's really quite beautiful. I'll get some pictures up here soon.
