The weather here today is cloudy and overcast. I love these kind of days. For some reason I'm always in a better mood (until my phone rings) on these kind of days. Always more motivated too. Don't ask me why, I just am. Another one of my weird personality traits.

Check this out on MSN. Creepy, huh? While I do admit (and this is not easy for me) that the aftermath of 9/11 was handled superbly by both Giuliani and Bush, you can not help but wonder, could this have been prevented? That day will forever be one of those "I remember exactly where I was" moments in my life. Just like when the Challenger exploded (5th grade indoor recess) and we dropped the first bombs during the Gulf War (trying to write a 10th grade Bio paper). The thing with September is that it hit so much closer to home for me. Not that I lost anyone near and dear, but I have many very good friends and family that live in the greater NYC area. The panic of making sure each and every one of them was o.k. will be something that will stand out in my brain forever.

Must get to bed early tonight, the U.S. plays in its first game of World Cup action at 5 a.m. Could be interesting since the team may be with out two of its best players. Room mate Marti think's I'm crazy. Maybe I am, maybe I'm not. Who cares. It's my life, right?

Adios for now.
