84. I was in the kitchen with my Dad.
I was drinking something probably milk. I believe we were watching Good Morning America in time for them to be reporting on the first crash... and we watched as the second plane hit not knowing what the fuck going on.

I'm pretty sure my Dad said "Well shit" . . . and then went on to work..

I went to Hardees for breakfast and that is when I heard over the radio the Pentagon had been hit.

At Hardees the manager at the drive thru was giving me my food and I told her they needed to turn the T.V on inside.. when she asked why and I told her.. I think she had a hard time believing me.

Later in the day I had to go to work (I worked at a boys and girls club) and had to try to explain to all the kids asking me "what's going on"... and saw parents coming in all day picking up their kids early.. every parent had the same expression on their face. . .

I had an easy job.. but it was the hardest day of work ever. . .
