Jim's quiet musings . . .

I don't know why I did it, but I just searched through Mark's archives for Sept. 11, 2001. Call it a need to base myself in reality. Mark was in New York. Hell, he was in Queens. I guess I get ashamed of myself for returning to normal life although that sounds silly. It is too easy to drift back into everyday life, especially when you are far from ground zero and not in active duty stationed on a carrier. Whew. I agree with Mark's mention of not being able to get your mind around the activities of that day. I came home on the ill fated Tuesday only to hear Anne's voice on my recorder. The full impact hadn't hit her yet. I wonder if it has truly hit me.
