What else is new

Working from home today--the norm these days. Just sitting at my desk, working those docs like I do, when I glance out the window and see a building on fucking fire! Pop on the telly and find out a plane crashed into a building about twenty blocks north of my apartment. And of course, CNN and every other 24-hour news source is speculating and oozing out fear-inducing terms like "terrorism" and "9/11" and "holy fucking shit we're all going to die." You know, the yoosh.

I better start working from the office again, my apartment is becoming far too hazardous a workplace.

[UPDATE: turns out that the pilot that died in the crash was Yankees pitcher Cory Lidle. The weirdest thing about this is that only one month ago the NY Times wrote an article about him being a pilot.]
