I hope everyone up in the cities is doing okay. I've heard from most people one way or another, but I'm just a bit freaked out. Steve called me about 6:30 CST to let me know about the bridge collapse before it was even on CNN and MSNBC down here, ironically enough he's the one that called me about 9/11 too.
There were two main reasons why I was freaking out. The first was mostly just the shock and the shear number of times I crossed that bridge, minimally 600 times a year when I worked for TEA 2. In hact if I was still there there would've been a great possibility trhat I would've been on that bridge on my way home at the very time it collapsed. I usually crossed the bridge around 6-6:15 everyday. The second was that I swore I saw my sister's car in the river and she was one of the few people not have called me back until around 9pm. She's got a pretty conspicous car like me, except hers is a deep red Mercury SUV with certain stickers on the back that matched one of the cars half submerged in the river. I called and called and called to no avail and when she finally called she hadn't even heard about the bridge collapse and the first thing she asked me was if it hindered her passage to Red Robin in Arden Hills ...?!?!?!? Don't ask, anyways I hope everyone's okay.
