Sep. 10th, 2002 10:40 amI've just started to think about tomorrow, about The Anniversary.
I really can't think of an appropriate response. My school is having a minute of silence (at 10:28, which seems a little random) and an evening service that will consist of "moments of silence, reflections on hope and healing by staff members, and musical presentations." Wild horses could not drag me to this. I've seen what happens when our staff members try to reflect, and it's not pretty.
At heart tomorrow's the one day of the year I want to *not* feel snarky. Which means I'm turning Luddite: no tv, radio, internet. If I could stay home I would. It's a day for friends and quiet and small acts of kindness.
