Odd
I stopped donning the 9/11 sackcloth and ashes some time back. I still pause on this day, but generally not in any public manner.
The last week or so has been bad. Busy and migraines are a poor combination. But it is what is is. Last night I went to bed early, exhausted. My plan was to sleep until my body decided it wanted to get up.
When I woke up, I reached over and grabbed my phone. It was 8:46. Odd, that.
If it had not been for the immediate passage of George W's "Patriot Act" I could have possibly believed it was an act of aggression by a foreign power but the passing of an act literally destroying the entire constitution and bill of rights in one fell swoop will not permit me to consider anything other than Domestic enemies .
