Today I went to Best Buy and a Verizon store to check out the Droid Bionic that I want to get. Also got pizza from a place I hadn't been to before and it was quite good, best in the area.
The only 9/11 coverage I watched was the opening of the Met game mostly because it was baseball. Other than that, I just watched Curb and the last 5 minutes of the Jet game. I can't get into 9/11. I was 12 when it happened, but it never really impacted me. I don't remember the world without all the suspicion and high security like we have since. At our school, they didn't make an announcement and there weren't a lot of kids getting pulled out of class, so there was nothing about that day that stood out. All I remember was my sister being hysterically crying and telling me the internet would probably be slow when we got home. I went on and didn't notice, saw an email from my dad saying he was OK (he was no where near it, he worked in Midtown) and had plans to stay in the city with a friend if he couldn't get home. Didn't know what it meant until my mom told me what happened.
My parents are the complete opposite (which is probably the way I am since I'm a natural contrarian). My dad watches EVERYTHING on 9/11, he has a ton of books about it, too. I've seen a documentary here and there, but I couldn't tolerate watching every damn show about it. My mom is really emotional and will cry about anything, so this always gets her going.
It may sound insensitive, but I've been ready to move on from 9/11 for awhile. Just waiting for everyone else to catch up.
