I was late for work that day, and didn't turn on the radio during the drive in. I arrived at work, in hindsight it was deathly quiet, and went to my office A message was blinking. My daughter left a weird voice mail asking something about "what was Brenda going to do. How was she getting home?" I was a little baffled , but I decided to get coffee before calling her back. I walked into the cafeteria, and a co-worker looked very dazed. I asked her jokingly, "What are you spacing out about so intently?". She replied, "Didn't you hear?" As she told me about a plane hitting one of the towers of the world Trade Center, my daughter's message made much more sense. Brenda was going to have a tough ride home. She works in midtown. But at this point, all I knew was a plane had hit one of the Trade Center Towers. I went into my office, and for some reason choose BBC News on my internet connection. It connected and in front of me was an image of a plane circling around the second tower. One was already on fire. The announcer was freaking, and so was I. Brenda and Manhattan were under attack. This was no accident! |
