Four years ago today a horrible tragedy occurred here in New York. The world as we knew it changed permanently on that day.

Out of sight, out of mind?

Yay for...

Part 2:

So my older sister recently got divorced. In a mildly unhappy marriage for 17 years (no abuse, no really obvious problems, from the outside they appeared a happy little nuclear family), last summer she reconnected with her first serious boyfriend.
