9/11 Redux

I can't decide if MSNBC's "historic, real-time" re-broadcast of "The Today Show" from September 11, 2001 is tasteless or cathartic, and I'm not sure what it says about me that I have it on in the background. (I can think of a few choice epithets for myself, given that five years ago today, I was working as a temporary receptionist, and now I'm doing the same thing again. You probably can too.)

If nothing else, it's important to remember that, as my therapist pointed out, even with the horror of the attacks, America was not an innocent victim in this. This was the culmination of years and years of crappy politics in the Middle East. No, I don't suppose we "deserved" it--no one who died in the attacks deserved to lose their lives in such a way--but there's only so much a person or persons can take. We must be more vigilant, and I don't mean by monitoring people's Internet activity or even forbidding liquids on airplanes. We need to think about how we're living our lives. Maybe it's too late for that. I don't know.

But hey, how about that SuperNanny! Just watched a marathon on the execrable ABC Family network yesterday and dag, I wish I'd had her when my momma was beating the shit out of me! I love her Cockney accent and her firm, loving, not-at-all-condescending way of stating what should be obvious but isn't. I'm kind of waiting for some scandal to break about Jo Frost beating the kids or sleeping with the father when the cameras go off, but that's because I'm a sick fuck. Thank god we have SuperNanny to make us comfortable during these last days before the Apocalypse!

I'm slightly bummed that I'll be missing the "Wife Swap" marathon next Sunday, but the AF is coming to visit and I'll be going to a yoga workshop. So!
