Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That looks like so much fun! Aside from the actual marathoning, of course...

As the years passed, most Americans were able to return to life much as it had been before 9/11. But I never did. Every morning, I received a briefing on the threats to our nation.

First, you didn't before? Second, you've already said except Sunday, but I suppose Sundays don't count. Third, apparently natural disasters don't count as a threat.

And, most importantly, do you really think you are the one most affected by 9/11? Seriously, on behalf of my friend from high school who lost her husband of umpteen years (we all went to prom together), I found that incredibly offensive.

Our wings are not tired.

I am remaining boggled at the awesome Hudson River landing.

We watched the pictures for hours since we were home when it happened. Awesome to be transfixed by good news.

I shocked myself and actually finished the Disney Marathon I went there to attempt.

Congratulations, Lisa! I love your post-race recovery plan.
