magicbeans. nothing if not awkward.

on the first leg of our plane ride the other day, as we were coming in for our landing in newark, i looked out my window at the new york skyline. the empire state building. the chrysler building. the world trade center.

our italian class was interrupted this afternoon and everyone was gathered together. the twin towers aren't there anymore. they were run into with hijacked airplanes. sometimes we live in an almost unbearably sad and terrible world.
