This may sound rather strange, but there's no one else I can share it with.
I was finally able to cry last night. I kept hearing of people on this site crying, seeing people crying on the news, and for some strange reason, tears just weren't coming for me. I felt the horror and dread, fought back the wave of nausea when I saw the footage, yelled and cursed in outrage, but no tears. I couldn't sleep, couldn't eat, but no tears.
I was beginning to think there was something seriously wrong with me, but last night, when trying to decide what to do for dinner, the whole thing just overwhelmed me and I sat on the kitchen floor and cried. Thank God my DH was home. He sat on the floor with me and just held me while I finally was able to get it out. I don't know what it was that finally broke the dam, maybe my body just couldn't take the stress anymore.
Anyway, just needed to share that with...somebody. I am so greatful for all of you out there...

Didface - A perfectly "normal" reaction. It takes everyone time to integrate this information. For the varying lengths of time we are in disbelieve and denial. Now you have reached the time where reality sets in and you grieve.
I want to comfort you right now. So consider yourself hugged and you can use my shoulder to cry on.

Hi all -
I'm happy to hear that all of you are safe and sound. Tuesday was an unbelieveable day for us here at work. Everyone was getting here with the shock on their face saying, "DID YOU HEAR WHAT HAPPENED?!!??"
All we did was sit in the conference room and watch the TV. Then they started evacuating the office around us. Just to get out of downtown was crazy. I was so happy to get home!
I just imagined what if a plane went right through the Sears Tower. It wouldn't even be here now. I'm so sadden by the events. We been praying for everyone.
Take care everyone! God Bless!
Bridget

Didface, I think that this is a normal reaction, too. When my daddy died, years ago, I wasn't able to cry for months, and than, in a moment when I really didn't count with it, all the tears came out, and in some way it was a very good feeling.
