Closing in

My birthday was Wednesday. So if my math is correct (because the older I get the less I care, so whenever anyone asks, I always have to pause to do the subtraction in my head) that makes me 38. Two more years til I hit 40, which quite frankly does not bother me as much [...]

Industrious

…there is really no point in me ever attempting to sleep in again as long as Sebastian’s voice maintains it’s charmingly air horn-like quality…

Milestoning

My dad turned 60 today, which seems somehow very difficult to believe, because I am not sure I am ready for that (I suspect neither is he).

Gridlock

…apparently to the drivers in Solano County, hills are so unnerving that everyone had to hit their brakes and, just for kicks and giggles, plow into each other from time to time because sometimes slowing down for a slight incline isn’t fun enough.

8:32 am – As we know it

Strange thing happened this morning.

 

12:34 pm – Getting weirder

Everyone went out to an early lunch except me, since I brought stuff in my Mr. Bento and I’m trying to be good about what I eat these days. But they should have been back by now, and I’m getting a little worried. The people in the office next door were out on their deck [...]

 

1:34 pm – Can’t be real

Heard screaming downstairs just now, followed by a lot of crashing, like windows breaking. Guess it’s a good thing I’m on the second floor. Except for all that glass in the front windows, by the balcony. Turned the desks over to cover those, if only to provide some cover so they can’t see in. Amazing [...]

 

3:48 pm – Crap

Thought about leaving earlier but there’s too many of them outside the doors. It’s like they know I’m in here. I can’t get ahold of my family. Phone just rings at my older sister’s house and when I call my little sister I just get a recording. No word from my parents either. And I’m [...]

 

4:04 pm – This is it

Smoke getting too thick. Can’t wait it out any longer. Have pried the blade off the paper cutter and covered my face with paper towels to help cut down on the smoke. There’s a lot of them out there but if I smash out that one window and drop down to my car before they [...]

I see no zombies

In the meantime, now that we are free from the threat of marauding zombies…
