Kat’s father made it home to Long Island last night, having walked about fifty blocks uptown before managing to get off the island.  One of Kat’s college friends was also very near the WTC when it was hit, and made it out physically unharmed.  So far, despite Kat’s strong NYC ties, we’ve been lucky: so far as we’re aware, nobody she knows was injured or killed.  We’re safe, everyone we know is safe; I don’t know about you, but for me, Thanksgiving has started a little early this year, even as I mourn the loss we’ve suffered as a people.
