I was scheduled to start work an hour later than normal for the entire week. My radio alarm woke me up and I remember hearing the disk jockey talking about a plane hitting the World Trade Center. At first I thought it was a joke and rubbed the sleep out of my eyes and went to the TV and turned on CNN. When I saw the footage I became numb. I continue to watch the coverage until I had to go to work. During that time I saw the second plane hit and both towers go down. As I saw the first tower go down, I ran to the phone and called work to tell them the news. During the day, I was scared. The world that I had know had been turned upside down.
