That was very nice of them to give you extra bread to take home.  Did they say where the grandmother was from?

We didn’t turn the tv on in the house for at least a week

A very, very wise thing to do with a child in the house.

I'm up.  I'm up.

I awakened after four and took my early meds and just hopped back into bed and drifted off.

I had another night of a dream-a-thon, this one was as loony as the previous ones.

I'm over it.

I am glad you are over it.  At least there is hope these dreams will go away once you are off the medications.

Every morning, I live in hope that I heard on TV something that will reveal the worst possible news for MAGAmericans.

Instead, I hear more absolute insane ravings he made over the weekend.

By "worst possible news", I mean something that will absolutely prevent him from running for president. 

The worst possible news for us would be something that would elevate him to martyrdom.

Sigh :(

The trip to the airport was wonderful going down, and absolute HELL on the return - thanks to the DELUGE drenching Queens, the Bronx, and parts of Westchester - all of which would have been avoided had there not been the DELUGES earlier in the day delaying untold numbers of flights into NYC.

The Van Wyck Expressway is hell at any time, but the worst this time was the northern portions along Flushing Meadows and the approach to the Whitestone Bridge. The DELUGE was such that it was one of those times that even the idiots on the road slowed down to speeds at which we could take a pretty good guess at where the lane lines were, where the road was going, and what the signs were saying. We arrived home at 11pm instead of 9pm.

Groan.  Thankfully you made it home safely.

At whatever time in the morning on September 11, 2001, the phone rang and it was my long-time engineer Vinnie who said, "Are you watching?" I said, barely coherent, "No, sleeping, what's up?" He simply said, "It's the end of the world." I got up and watched, just in time to see the second plane hit. In a way, it WAS the end of the world.

He woke you up very early.  The second plane crashed at 9:03.

I can't recall if our wakeup call was that early.  Craig called and talked to Keith, then Keith woke me up.

My first call was to my brother to ask about my niece.  She called her mother after the first crash and was on the phone with her while watching the second crash.  My niece was in a different building in viewing distance.  It took until the end of the day to find out one of her roommates was ok.

I had to call former DR TPunk to make sure she’d gotten to work. This was pre-cellphone era for us.  We had just been dating a few months and she’d stayed over in Brooklyn but left for work after I did. When I reached her at her job in the Viacom Building in Times Square, she had absolutely no idea anything had happened. She came to my office and we had a surreal walk all the way up to her apt on 190th.


It was lucky she had left after me because it was Fashion Week that week. A friend of mine had come to town to sleep on my couch all day while working all night at Bryant Park. TPunk had passed him arriving at my place as she was leaving. So I was able to calm his wife who was calling frantically wanting to make sure he was ok. He slept the day away with no idea that anything had happened until I finally got him to pick up the phone at 5pm.

I had a call from a woman in my book group asking if I was still hosting the meeting.  I hadn't even thought about cancelling until she asked.  She said she still wanted to have it so I said "come".  I then called everyone else in the group to ask what they wanted to do.  A few of them had seen the news and I had to tell them.

It was a small group that day but we were all glad we still got together.

The two folks in the first photo are the line deniers - Linda had plenty of time to take that picture because they stood just like that without moving or talking for about six minutes on Thursday night.

Sorry to hear that Jack
