actually, to elaborate on my 9/11 morning:
I had our sort of old ‘cleaning man’ who speaks limited English over. throughout the morning I’m freaking out over the news & telling him in simple English, limited Spanish, Spanglish, hand motions, etc. what’s going on blow-by-blow… all morning long. then comes about noon & he calls his brother & comes back to tell me:’ did you hear about what happened?!’.. I literally wanted to bang my head against the wall that I had apparently been speaking to all morning!! :-O
