So, it is now 3:49 in the afternoon and it only now registered in my mind that today is September 11. Which means that nearly 8 years ago today, I was sleeping in my bed in Shanghai. 8 years ago, my dad woke me up and told me that I had to come watch something on TV. 8 years ago, I watched as the Twin Towers erupted in flames. 8 years ago, I watched as they crumbled to the ground, destroying the lives of many.
And it isn't until 4 in the afternoon does this fact register in my mind.
Boy, do I feel like a jerk...
