Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I woke to the images of the trade center towers on fire on my television, which I leave on while I sleep. Even though Alaska is so far removed from New York City, I felt an indescribable sense of horror, terror, and fear. I was 29 years old, and all I could think was that I wanted my mommy, someone to hold and cuddle me and tell me that everything was all right, that the world wasn't ending. I have a large group of online acquaintances on www.livejournal.com, and I turned on my computer to see what information I could find online, and what my friends knew. I found the same reactions amongst my online friends, ranging from the same mix of emotions from those somewhat geographically distanced from the sites of the horror, to people terrified that their loved ones in New York and Washington were involved somehow. I sent frantic e-mails to a friend living in NYC, since each time I tried to call, I was told that all circuits were busy. I was comforted the slightest bit by sharing my feelings with my online friends. It may behoove the archivists of this site to visit www.livejournal.com, and visit any of the over 600,000 journals housed there. You can click on the "Calendar View" of any journal, and then follow the links to find what they posted on September 11 and the days following. There could be quite a bit of interest to you there.
