Day 2 of very little sleep.
I hope I'm not getting sick.
This 9/11 stuff is wierd....
1 year ago, today:
I was in Chicago on business by myself when that happened. I was supposed to fly back on 9/12, but was stuck and fought for a seat on an Amtrack train. I had a supposed 2 day trip, it ended up being 3 with all of the delays. I had no clean clothes- no bunk...just a seat, and sometimes yesterday's newspaper. Most current events were learned about by overheard cell phone conversations. All I wanted was to get home, see my friends faces and sleep in my own bed.
It was a strange trip- I could have been scared, paranoid, and downright nutty. Surprisingly, it was a strangely comfortable feeling being on that capsule riding through the golden midwest, through the rockies, and into California...
In a strange way, I'm kinda glad that I wasn't at home- comfortable. The whole thing was very surreal.
viva la California Zephyr.
