Oh, come on. Like none of you woke up and also reminded yourself that 50 Cent's new CD drops today? Buncha closeted Fiddy fans.

Okay, in all seriousness, it is a date that does cause one to pause and reflect with sadness. You can't help but to remember every moment of that day. I know this time, six years ago, I was en route to my Grandma & Grandpa's house after work, and the sky was so eerlily empty and silent.

I remembered it first thing in the shower this morning, and then, because I blast my Sirius radio in there, I heard Howard Stern mention it. This is the first year that he isn't replaying his broadcast from that day. I admit, it's very hard to listen to it, especially when you hear the terror and speculation in their voices.

When I got to work, and changed my little desk calendar I immediately had a pang in my heart. And everytime I glance at it, I can't help but remember.

No problem. I have no problem with my pieces causing conversation.
