A lot of east coasters probably slept through this.

Tomorrow morning will be a whole other deal, and I bet the WTC site will be a wild scene.

2. It already looks like a wild scene, as does Lafayette Park.

I was just about to go to bed here on the East Coast when I saw the news reports and had to stay up to hear Obama, the post-speech analysis, and Fox News' lame-ass praise of President Bush.

There were probably a lot of East Coast people like me, who saw the breaking news right before bed, and know they have to get up in the morning, but just couldn't go to bed till they knew the details of this story.

5. I'm East Coast

[TuxedoKat]

8. Students at Penn State Univ. have taken to the streets to revel (though it never takes much ...)

They revel at the drop of a hat at my alma mater!

Thousands in the streets at Ground Zero, and at the Whitehouse.

4. A lot of them got phone calls

and woken up.

7. I called a couple people.

Thankfully someone called me before the Osama news got out. I thought it would be some real bad news at first.

9. I was thinking that

My daughter lives in dc but she gets up early with the kids so i bet she was in bed.

10. Will Pitt must have slept through it.

[WilliamPitt]

12. How did you guess?

Early to bed, early to rise...HOLY SHIT!

:)

[donheld]

13. I slept through 9/11

I'd been working nights

[Solomon]

16. Same here. It was shocking to say the least when I groped outside

to pick up my newspaper this morning.

[Renew Deal]

18. I noticed you were missing too.

Anybody that read's the DU 9/11 archive sees how prominent you are in it. And your absence was felt last night as well. :pals:

[MichellesBFF]

11. I went to sleep at a decent hour

Got at least 8 hours, which is great for me. I guess that's what you get when you watch HGTV!

Then I wake up and the internets blew up.

[Hosnon]

14. Probably but lots of late night phone calls were made. Particularly when we didn't know

what was going on, and he scared the living shit out of us for a half hour, haha.

[Dappleganger]

15. No, we stayed up late anyway...

and then we couldn't go to sleep for several hours trying to gather everyone's comments online/on tv.

[Renew Deal]

17. I only got around 4-5 hours sleep last night

:hangover:
