WTC II

You know I’ve never cried over anything I’ve seen on the news before, but when I watched the World Trade Center buildings collapse I felt like busting out into tears.

I have a brother who works in D.C. I panicked for what seemed like hours until I heard from my parents that he was ok.

My wife went to the store and I didn’t know about it. I must have left about 15 messages on the answering machine at home.

Both my dad, who is 72, and my mother-in-law, who is 63, both said the same thing. That this was Pearl Harbor all over again.

I live nowhere near NY or D.C. but I still can’t help feeling nervous. I’m at work right now, probably risking my job to do this, but I think it’s necessary. Here in Charlotte, NC, they’re evacuating the First Union/Wachovia building and most of downtown. I wish they would let us go. I want to be with my family. More later.
