Guest Blog - The Zombie Edition

A while back, I thought about blogging from a zombie's perspective.  It seemed like an interesting take at the time, but these days I'm more human than zombie, and aside from the stereotypical zombie characters we're given in movies, what do I know about what it's like to be a zombie?  You guessed it - nothing!

So, like any distraction driven individual, I turned to a trusted source in my time of need, Google.  Apparently, zombies are quite the popular subject and you'll receive about 145,000,000 results for searching 'zombie blog.'  While there are quite a few sites that discuss zombie survival, movies, books, etc., there aren't very many run by actual zombies for me to talk to.  The most promising blog I managed to find was Zombie Eat Brains by Zombie Tom, but he hasn't posted anything since 2007.  I think it might have something to do with his last post outing Lindsay Lohan as a zombie.  It's a shame since Tom looked like the perfect fit to write a post about the day in the life of a zombie.  Who knows, maybe if I email him and ask nicely he still will.  Or maybe I can get the zombie from the Civic commercials to write a post but he seems really busy with work, golf and picking up girls...

Feel free to send some perspective zombie writers my way lovely readers - but not literally since I'd like to keep my brains =)

Nightmare

Since Sunday is the designated "sleep in" day of the week, it only makes sense that I have a nightmare and can't get back to sleep at 7 am.  I don't even get up that early for work but here we are, two loads of laundry in, getting a leg up on the day for once instead of running to catch up.

It doesn't take a genius to figure out that I have a lot on my mind right now which would explain why all I can remember of this dream was that I was running for my life, away from something I couldn't even see.  I'd love to insert some sort of monster or crazed psychopath as the thing I was running away from but I seriously have no idea.  All I can remember was the fear of not running fast enough because that's what always happens in nightmares; your legs feel like lead and you're slowing down instead of speeding up.  If only it was a funny running away like Zombieland or Shaun of the Dead since I tend to assume that Zombies would be the easiest to run away from for some reason.

With all this talk about Zombies, I think I'll go watch some while the rest of you sleep away this Sunday morning for me =)
