What a wierd day it is. It's quite quiet in midtown, sunny, windy, beautiful day, just like it was 5 years ago. There weren't many people on the train.
I said hi to one of the guys in corporate security today - he was an ex-cop, and he had his commemorative pin. I told him that I was surprised he was here today. He smiled sadly and said, "this is a day to just get through." yeah, I hear ya.
Sigh. I went to the corner of the floor to look at where the WTC was, and observed a moment of silence. I'm just thankful, selfishly, that I didn't lose anyone I knew, but so many people I know had close calls. I think it's a good thing that I can't remember everything that happened that day and the days following, because I really don't want to. It would hurt too much.
