I was still in bed and my roomate had gotten up a little while earlier. All of a sudden she turned the TV on, this was really strange cause she was always considerate if I was still sleeping. She was like, wake up planes just hit the WTC. I can't remember if both had been hit at that time, or just the first one. I remember seeing both towers fall though. I was scared, we had a girl just down the hall that was from New York, and my mom worked at the airlines at the time. So I called home about noon and talked to my mom about what was going on. It was kinda comforting though because she said that the info that they recieved at the airport led them to believe that all of the planes had been accounted for by that time. So I felt I didn't have to worry about any more strikes.
Granted I am in po-dunk town Wisconsin. There was still fear of something happening here, we arn't that far from Chicago, Milwaukee, or even Madison.
I cannot believe it has been two years already. Its been a rough time for us all.
