Last night D came running upstairs and turned on the TV. 35W collapsed. Into the river. During rush hour.
I still cannot completely wrap my head around what is going on. It's just so surreal. I cannot believe this happened. I cannot believe it happened so close to me--near where I work, on a bridge I travel on constantly.
I rushed to the phone to call my mom. She takes 35W home from work, and although I knew she tended to leave around 5pm, I wanted to be sure. My family is fine. I spoke with many of my friends and they are fine. Emails are flying this morning with people checking in--checking on everyone else. It seems that my loved ones are all safe. I hope it stays that way.
Our HR Director is checking who is and who is not at work right now. She's going to start calling those who are missing.

I hope everyone from your office is ok! I heard this morning that they didn't think anyone from my office was hurt, and I hope that is still true.
Everyone at our office is OK. We had a scare as we couldn't reach someone until 3pm (she had meetings out of the office all morning) and her husband wasn't answering his phone either. But, everyone I work with is fine and I don't believe that anyone in their families was hurt.
