Thank God I wasn't working down here back then.
From my office window...
From MSNBC...
I don't think I could ever have imagined myself feeling this emotionally removed from the whole thing. Especially given my close physical proximity to the site.
I usually feel a twinge of something on the anniversaries. Sadness, anger, something eerie, something sensorial, something particular. Something.
But today just feels like a Thursday.
Actually, it feels like an even less noteworthy Thursday than most other Thursdays.
I don't know why.

I think it is fatigue. Just hard to continue to feel something when most of the feelings have already been exploited or used up.
I had the same reaction. Woke up feeling like a normal rainy thursday, made plans to study and clean the bathroom. Then realized what day it was. I watched the news while Sara and I ate breakfast, had a brief bout of survior guilt, said a little pray of thanks, and went about my day.
