Where were you at?

The day terrorists changed the world as we know it. I was at work. I don't think that I did one thing all day long. Everyone was listening to the radio and trying to pull up websites. Every now and then someone would get CNN to load and everyone in the office would come see the updated photos. I will never forget when we heard that the first tower collapsed.

My parents always talk about how they will never forget where they were at when JFK was assassinated. I will never forget were I was at on September 11 2001.

My thoughts and prayers go out to everyone affected by this tragic event.

i woke up, and saw katie couric talking about a plane hitting the WTC. i kindof laughed (sorry) because at the time only 1 had hit & i thought the pilot had decided to commit suicide so he flew into a building. Then the 2nd building got hit, and everyone realized it was terrorism. I didn't see the 1st one fall down, but i saw the 2nd one fall down live on tv.

I was sleeping.

It hasn't changed my world at all.

Except for now I call my Arabic friend more racial names, and sometimes I crash my car into him.

I was driving past Bentley College on the way to work and had the radio on. Howard Stern was talking about it and I was thinking what a tasteless joke that was, even for him.
then I saw the empty looks on the people around, and I passed construction workers and wondered if they knew.
I was just in shock and wondered what was going on, and what the end of that day would bring - I knew my life would be different.
work was pretty much wasted that day and we went home early.

I didn't see any of it live on tv, but I saw all the stuff replayed over and over - it was, and still is, very hard to watch.

I knew one of the guys on the planes, and I knew a girl in one of the towers.
I wasn't close to either of them, but I can't imagine how hard it would be for anyone that lost someone close - it is hard enough to think of it as it is.

that was when i realized how antidepressant medications changed me.

people all around work were crying and hovering by tvs and web browsers. i didn't feel anything. then, when i realized i felt nothing, i felt sad...

I was walking thru my living room, chewing my daughter out for not getting ready for school like she should when the phone rang, it was my sister telling me to turn to CNN, that airplanes were hitting the WTC. It took awhile for it to register what she was telling me.
