After seeing it happen before, I know there is simply nothing I can do about it. If I'm meant to be the target, I will be, and that's that. Just like if I'm meant to die in a car crash I will. I can obey the traffic laws and wear my seat belt, but there's nothing I can do about the other crazies on the road...
Oy was it a pain today though! The poor people at one of the Citibank buildings had to wait in line outside (ick, heat) to show their badge to even get in the building. Then they still had to sacn the badge and their bags once in. And 57th St was closed because of a 'suspicious package' between Park and Lex. I really hope the next 4 weeks aren't like this...

I agree that there is really nothing you can do about it. I think that this city is much safer than it was three years ago. You just have to live your life as safely as possible.
I think that it will get worse with the Republican National Convention, the U.S. Open, and the anniversary of September 11th. I'm on 57th Street and something is always happening here because it is so busy with crosstown traffic.
Two members of my alumnae association work at Citigroup so I'll ask them what's going on there. I think that they are in the downtown office.
