Interview with a zombie?

3:03 PM: You'd be surprised at how few of my neighbors actually keep their weapons in secure locations.

You also might be surprised at how few of them know how to deal with zombies, but then again, maybe you wouldn't be. I wasn't.

Sure, the zombie apocalypse just had to happen on the day of a job interview. Well, turns out that my artist knows a guy who knows a guy, and we managed to get my car a little more prepared for a long journey through rural, zombie-infested territory. I can't discuss the details for national security reasons, but let's just say that gun turrets are involved.

The undead have been advancing pretty steadily. Most of them are coming from the south, I think, but it's hard to tell with all of the chaos - big mobs of them chase the remaining civilians and change from their initial course, so I can't track their movements very well. Family's all safe so far, though my brother went out for a supply run. Gotta stock up on potable water, especially with the weather as it is.

Well, then, I'm off to shred my way through the undead hordes in pursuit of gainful employment. (Sometimes you just gotta keep trying!) I just hope that when I get to my interview, the vet will still be a vet, and not just another mindless rotting fleshbag.

Is anyone else still alive and kicking?

Just what I need!

8:58 AM: Well, it's a damned good thing that I woke up early to walk that dog in Queen Anne.

I was up by eight thirty and I went out to check the garden and greet the cats, and there's this... weird scratching sound coming from the other side of the fence. I'm thinking it's a raccoon or something, so I shoo the cats inside and go to chase the thing away, and sure enough, there's a freaking zombie in my neighbor's yard, clawing at the fence that separates our properties. Shit. I haven't seen any others, but zombies are kind of like roaches, or ninja; for every one that you see, there are hundreds that you don't.

I gotta figure out a plan. Moreover, I gotta get some guns.

GO!

I am feeling somewhat better today. No one is hiring, but I'm going to go and wave my resume in people's faces nonetheless. Also, if any of you know anyone who needs a pet-sitter or a dog walker, kindly point them in my direction.

More Important Business: the graduation gifts from relatives are starting to arrive, and I am amassing a small pile of gift cards for B&N, Borders, et cetera. Book recommendations! I need them! GO!

Ooh, shinies.

Pardon me while I get things set up here.

For anyone who cares, you can find me more often at my livejournal.

(Also, gah. Why are all of the dreamwidth site layouts so girly.)
