I enjoyed it.
You must be doing it wrong.

I think being LiL probably blows.

Oh, I just remembered even earlier. September 11, 2001 - would have been sixteen months. I remember my mom crying and my dad plaing The Beach Boys' "Warmth of the Sun" over and over again. Funny how they start coming back when you focus.

Woah.
That's early.
Woah.
I just fully realized our age difference.

nah, it's cool most of the time.

I just get sad/bored/complacent sometimes and shit gets kind of blah.

but it's cool to be me.

I'm kind of in that situation where most people I know are younger than I am and all hyped about being 21 and I'm totally over everything that excites them. :laughing: but then other people I know are significantly older than I am, and we don't really relate. It's such an awkward in-between state.

Why is this so weird to me?

Ya, same here. 9/11 was the first time my daughter saw me cry.

9/11 was one of the most absolutely gripping things I had ever seen on tv. Class was essentially cancelled for the day because nobody could really fully absorb what had happened and it was just so shocking to see someone fly a fucking plane into a building.

It was raining that morning. My (grade 7?) social studies teacher, who was typically a loud-mouthed republican asshole, said nothing. Nothing. We all sat in silence.

Does anyone remember watching Princess Diana's funeral? I hadn't sobbed so much as a child, as I did over that.
