Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: My TV has a timer that automatically goes on every morning. I woke up and saw the towers on fire - but I thought it was a movie. I proceeded into the shower and then I realized that my TV was on NBC - so that could not be a movie. I instantly jumped out of the shower thinking of my brother and a few friends that work in the WTC. I tried unsuccessfully to call back east - all of the lines were tied up. I figured it would be best to get ready for work and try to contact loved ones from there. On the way to work I heard about the collapse of the towers, the crash at the Pentagon and the crash in PA. I started to sob uncontrolably - partly for fear partly for anger. What the hell was going on?! I finally was able to get in touch with my loved ones within an hour of being at work. My building in downtown L.A. was then evacuated and we were all sent home. I can only imagine what those people who lost loved ones were going through watching the continous coverage of 9/11 on television. My thoughts are prayers are still with each and every person who lost a loved one on that horrible day.
