June 11, 2007: I turn 27.
June 12, 2007: work as usual.
June 13, 2007: the dead walk.
And, you know, the stupid thing is, I didn't know what was going on until I got halfway down I-20 on the way to work and traffic was all backed up and... dead people. zombies. shambling.
Under the circumstances I don't think Saks is gonna do much to me for not making it into work.
Got the hell off 20 while I could and went home - I know, I know, but stupid me, all I could think was that the cats were stuck in my apartment and I'd put the food up. Sorry, guys, turns out I'm That Girl.
And then I pulled into the parking lot and there were two zombies on the stairs up to my apartment so I, uh, ran my car into them. Biggest blunt weapon I could think of at the time.
Didn't work quite like I was hoping but the zombies got crushed and the stairs are pretty much blocked - they're not so much for climbing so far - and I got the armoire and my bookshelves in front of the front windows and barricaded in as much as I could. Sammy and Bogart are freaked but okay so far.
I guess I can hold out as long as the power does... so far from what I can tell they're not too interested in getting up here. Yet.
I've got food - saving that MRE I'd stashed in the closet forif when if the power quits - bottling up water in any container I can spare - and a stick. That's about it. I swear to God if I live through this I'm going to go out and buy a baseball bat or something. Shotgun. Baseball bat and shotgun. I've got a little time to get creative, at least, maybe I can come up with something...
At least so far I've still got net access. Ha ha, small blessings. Hailing frequencies, guys: anyobdy still out there? Let me know you're okay. Or - alive.
please let me know i'm not the only one still out here
