Emma Alexandra 123367 Report post Posted April 7, 2009 It was September 11. I turned on the TV to see a replay of a plane flying into the World Trade Centre. A few minutes later, my new friend came downstairs and sat next to me -- and for over an hour, we just sat there in silence, watching CNN, unable to believe what we were seeing. I was walking home from visiting my mom when my sister yells out to me...{A plane just hit the twin towers" i ran home..at this point i hadn't been speaking to my ex but still living in the same house...i walked into his room and turned on the tv... he and i watched silently together..stunned and shocked...i must say he knew he was no accident. The first thing he said was thats terrorism. We sat there and seen when all those firemen were running in and a few mins later the building collapsed...i will never forget that day... kisses, Emma A Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RubJunky 1954 Report post Posted April 7, 2009 Seems this thread is changing....lol! I was on my way to a meeting when I first heard it on the radio... I met with my customer, told him what was going on and we went to the local restaurant to watch it alll on CNN... My first reaction was... The bully is now being bullied.... just didn't know who the new bully was at the time. rub Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoyfulC 132299 Report post Posted April 7, 2009 Sorry, I didn't mean to change the thread. I often leave my other business phones lines up because they rarely bother us. You can imagine how weird it was trying to do a session (and a FIRST session) whilst someone was yelling loudly over my answering machine. I knew there was some kind of emergency, and in the back of my mind, I was probably a little distracted, wondering if I was needed ASAP -- but it wasn't anything I could do anything about! But too, as it turned out, it was a weird day for everyone. We were so stunned when we found out what was happening that I think we completely forgot about the distraction.
