I flew from Raleigh-Durham into JFK. The weather was absolutely perfect, as it was for the entire month of September. I was on the left of the plane, I seem to remember making a point of doing that so I could get that great view of the entire island of Manhattan. I'm pretty lucky to have seen it all from the air one last time.
I caught a cab from JFK to the WTC so I could take the PATH train to my place in Jersey City. I went out that night with some friends and had a few too many. That, and the general hangover from the wedding I was at that weekend made me keep hitting the snooz the next morning. Normally, at 8:45, I would have been somewhere in the bottom of the WTC, heading to the subway so I could get to work. Instead, I watched it all unfold from my front stoop.
