I was on the road for work, and while I was driving I could see the smoke from the towers billowing up on the horizon. I assumed it was a local factory fire or something, until they started talking about it on the radio.

At which point I, like a lot of other people, started trying to call everyone I knew from NYC (and specifically from lower Manhattan - basically, people who would plausibly have been in/near the towers at the time, which included my girlfriend). Which of course was utterly pointless, because everyone doing it overloaded the phone networks so none of the calls were making it through anyway, which just made everyone worry more.

Eventually I managed to contact everyone I knew by later in the day (thankfully no one was involved), but I spent most of the day massively stressed until late afternoon or so.
