Holy goddamned *jesus* fuck... God fucking son of a...

In a freaking instant, I'm 12 again, in junior high, just hearing the news in my first hour gym class, in the locker room. I'm 12 and watching those goddamned images on TV over and over and over an d over, and crying.

Now it's, what, 17 years later, and it's just the same, just like then. History fucking repeats itself.

I wanted to be an astronaut when I was a kid. Even got Oddessey magazine for kids, kept looking up at the stars, always wonderi ng what it was like out there.

God fucking son of a *bitch*. .

I was in Mrs. Andrews' science lab. Scott Mangene came running down the hallway shouting the news to everyone. The entire school spent the rest of the day in the library, watching the TV.

Space isn't supposed to be touched by the rest of what we deal with.

We had to go on with classes like normal, but I don't think anyone was really paying attention. But my parents being the sorts of people they were and are, they were glued to CNN for the whole evening, hell, for days. And I remember there was one science class (not the one I was in) that watched each and every launch, so they saw it live, and I can't imagine what they felt/thought/whatever, to not have any warning at all like the rest of us. Just like the people today, all those watching and waiting. God...



*hugs, leans really hard* I'm feeling this too much. I should go do all those things I needed to do today, and concentrate on worrying about Crystal cat over at her dental exam/cleaning. Gods... *hugs you extra much*

~leans back really hard~ It's choking me, I can't stop feeling it. I'm trying to vacuum and I keep looking out the window to the flag that Eric has set at half mast. Hanging there in stark reality against the grey still winter day. ~hugs your fiercely~ I'm with you in spirit my friend, let's do the things in our day together. ~still leaning~

Holy crap. O.O

I woke up, watch about three minutes of Static(or whatever they call it since it became an animated series), and then started channel surfing -- and then I saw Columbia. O.o

I woke up to history repeating itself, after a fashion. -_-
