That sounds like a perfectly good way to handle it, Sophia.
I don't think I was even lurking here until a couple years later.
Someone called my cell phone at 5:30 am and left a very uninformative message (I thought it was my alarm rather than an actual phone call once I woke up enough to realize it was a real noise and not a dream, the whole thing was very confusing). It's from the same area code as a number I called yesterday and left my cell number with for a call back, but not the same number and they didn't say who they were. Whine.
Seriously. Laura? amych? You must have been there.
I know, right? It was the need to escape news that led to me finding you. Fairly close to that date.

Nope. I started lurking a few weeks later and delurked shortly after.
Do we have the posts archived in a special place or do I just search the regular archives.
If you go to the Buffista links in the sidebar, and then go to The Buffista Files (Zipped Whole Thread Downloads), the zipped threads have dates on them so you can find that thread easily.
What Teppy said.
We were at World Crossing then. It's around the time I found the board (that is, I think Julie followed Allyson and Kristen and I followed Julie, but we mostly lurked, and she'd send hilarious shrift posts to tempt me to the board).
Edited because what's a Tepoy?
y'all, I'm so thankful for our lack of images today -- I'm having trouble totally staying away from facebook because it's where the hurricane warning updates are coming in fastest, but the very same people I'm relying on for those are a few first responders who are posting ALL. THE. PICTURES. IN. REAL. TIME. HOLY. SHIT. NO. PLEASE. STOP.
You're a little Tepoy

If this were Facebook, this is where I would post a GIF of someone laughing delightedly.
Boy was I tally meat back in September 2001. I am reading the posts leading up to 9/11 where we are talking about the finale and I actually sound reasonably intelligent. I think I lost some brain cells along the way, and/or posting mostly by phone has made things harder.
