I remember I was just about to stick a movie in the DVD player when my husband called from work to tell me to turn on the news. He said a plane had crashed into one of the towers. I turned on the news just in time to hear about the second plane hitting and then they were showing video off it happening. I think at that point I dropped the phone and ran to the computer to try and contact my friend who had recently moved to the city and was working near the towers. Luckily I was able to contact her pretty quickly and her and her significant other were both fine. the rest of the day was spent alternating between shock, disbelieve, despair and worry over what would happen next.
