HIM – In Love And Lonely
Well it’s September 11th 2002. A whole year since the worst attack upon American soil in history… somehow it seems like it should feel more profound. I guess if I got out more I’d see the effects of it more… But this day has made me reflect a bit, funny how a terrible event such as this makes one remember most of what they did on that day. This is like “where were you when Kennedy was shot” of the past generation… I think most people can recount the events of the day the World Trade Centers were attacked. I would recount them here, but that would be more boring than my usual blog. But I do remember what I was doing now, at 10 am on the 11th last year, sleeping. See I had spent the previous night breaking up with my ex, and on the way home we got a flat tire, waited 2 hours for help and didn’t get back home until about 8 am, so of course I was sleeping. I didn’t find out about the attacks until noon when my ex came into the room to tell me that our friend was at the door freaking out about some ‘bombing’.
As much as I never said much about the attack, and still downplayed my patriotism as much as I always have I do feel for the lives lost, and the families that had to continue after losing loved ones. A few months ago I wrote up a long boring thing about 9.11 on my website, if you havent seen it, and your are bored you might wanna check it out: 09.11.01.
So the memorials today are centered around the World Trade Center attacks. And sure, the loss of life in those were much more than the loss of life in the Pentagon, but still why do people seem to be avoiding the fact that the Pentagon was attacked at all? At first I thought it was just the Pentagon was a bit ashamed that it let the attack happened, but then my buddy Rubicant had to come down with his Conspiracy theories. Now I’m not one to believe these sorts of things, I don’t believe the moon landing was fabricated in a hollywood basement, or any of those silly things… but this pentagon theory makes more and more sense each time I think about it. It says that the Pentagon was NOT hit by a plane. From what I’ve read a few European countries (including France) are almost positive that this is the truth, but I’ve see pictures of the pentagon after the attack, next to pictures the size of a plane that would have crashed into it and things just dont quite add up. Well you can see for yourself at this french site i found on the whole thing:

So enough about the whole September 11th thing, we are moving on, recovering from that. So now back to talking about me %P
I had a really bad headache last night… sucked ’cause it started out right before Myk got home, sorta felt like a sinus headache so I took some Advil Migrane (LOVE Advil Migrane… it works wonders). That seemed to make my headache go away until about 10, when it came back, REALLY bad. I was sitting there giving Myk a backrub while he worked on some stuff on his computer and my head started hurting, stomach getting all upset… %( I took summore Advil Migrane and went to lie down… headache didnt go away for about 2 hours… at least that’s when I finally fell asleep. Luckily I don’t have a headache this morning %) Stupid migranes… I hadnt had one for like 6 months tho, so it’s not *so* bad. I don’t know what caused it though. *shrugs*
I guess I’m gonna go try to get some work done noew… *wanders off*
