I had just sat down in my home office to start to work. At that time I worked for a company that contracted with the Dept. of Transportation to handle queries to the DOT website. A friend/co-worker who had just moved to Florida from NYC called and told me to turn on the news. She was sobbing. As I turned on the TV the 2nd plane hit the 2nd tower. I was stunned! All I could say, and kept repeating, is "Oh My God." My friend, Evie, said that she had some close friends that worked in World Trade Center 2. She hung up and I continued to watch the coverage, selfishly grateful that I didn't know anyone that worked in or near the towers. I remember, vividly, the news stating it was terrorist related! Fear set in.I wondered what was going to happen next?? The Pentagon........Flight 93 happened next.
Later in the day, I talked with Evie again and she said that her friends were safe.
