Jet Lag. 06?/04/07

So here I am, wide awake, with jet-lag at 5a.m. Japanese time - God knows what English time. I`m waiting for it to get light so I don`t feel so alone in the world, so I don`t feel like I`ll wake anybody up by my noisiness alone.

I want to lie in the comfortable room reading and not in this freezing kitchen. But the light in the other room has two settings; nearly off and Iraqi interregation. After making tea I`m keeping the gas ring on to warm the room up a bit.

At least the birds are awake now. I thought I just saw the sun rising but it was just a streetlight through frosted glass.
