I got a call from my mom that woke me up that day. She said the World Trade Center was hit by a plane. I turned it on, and a few minutes later, the second one hit. I didn't leave the T.V. set for days.

I was working at a hotel at the time, and I had to work the day after the attack. Of course all vacations were cancelled and nobody showed up to stay at the hotel, so there were just a bunch of us employees sitting around watching the news for our entire shift. I'll never forget that.
