Have you ever stopped to think about Zombies? Kate Baker did and so did a bunch of other people. Read about it here: WunderLINK Activate

I posted this @48:

Well, I’d want to take a small group of skilled survivors and make supply stops a Cracker Barrel ’cause it’s yummy and there’s some good wall stuff and creature comfort items (I know I’m gonna want some hand cream and air freshener), but I’d also stop at a hardware store, a super Wal-mart, and perhaps a gun shop to pick up some “essentials.”

Then we head for a prison (perhaps maximum security prison) where we release the prisoners (maybe we don’t tell them about the zombies) and once they’re out, rush in and shut the doors. All of them.

I’d go for a prison with guard towers so we can keep lookout for the zombies and maybe a garden so we can get some much needed sunshine and grow food if we had to be there for a while. Hopefully we remembered to pick up seeds from the Wal-mart or hardware store. The gardening tools should also be fairly effective if the zombies breech our otherwise top-notch barriers. Yep.

And after reading all the posts, I gotta say that some people spend waaay too much time thinking about Zombies. I guess it’s a survival thing in all of us and … perhaps … a few too many video games. Maybe the real “secret” about Zombies is that they eat your brains via thought. You know when you can’t stop thinking about something and it feels like it’s eating your brains — Zombies did that. Like an ear worm, only, Zombie thoughts. Maybe I’m over thinking this. Wait! That’s how it starts isn’t it?! Zombie thoughts again. Noooooooo. They’re in my mind! (Really though, might have to write a story. Ack! There it is again.)

As I write this, I’m at a Taco Bell to lunch with my daughter between shuttling her from one summer camp to the next. We like tacos and burritos.

Of note, the men at this crowded Taco Bell out number the females 33 to 8 (my daughter and I are included in the eight) — that’s a >4 to 1 ratio. Her Blowfish Robocraft Camp has a better male to female ratio. Do women generally dislike Taco Bell that much? Or do men just like it that much? As we finish our eats, some patrons leave and new arrivals wait in line, but the ratio remains the same.

Interesting.

Today begins my daughter’s week of Blowfish Robocraft camp. I know, I know. Blowfish Robo-what? Trust me, I did not make this up.

So, I no sooner transfer a few old posts from Blogger to WordPress, and more than a whole week goes by before I post anything new on WordPress (more or less). Did the lack of motivation & enthusiasm that I had on Blogger just get transfered to WordPress too? Like some kind of virus? Ack. Maybe it was just a busy week. And true, it was. But not busy with loads of interesting topics I’d want to share on a blog. There’s stuff I definitely don’t want to share with the whole wide world on a blog, so that’s something (or not as the case may be). And, no, I’m not telling what I don’t want to share…for now.

On the upside of the week, I updated my stepdad’s website. That is something I am happy to share, so wonderlink activate! Form of… a URL.

Visit it and be amazed. (Please.)

And with that, I’m going to try making a Poll via WordPress and its association with PollDaddy.

Here goes:

Transfered some old Blogger/Blogspot posts to WordPress. I think it’s cool that WordPress can do this. Generally, I’ve been way happier with WordPress as Blogger made me want to pull my hair out in clumps. I really don’t like that look for me. WordPress, so far, has actually motivated thoughts like, “hey, that’s cool!” Sometimes, I even say it aloud and smile. This look is much preferable to the baldspotted-head-with-strands-sticking-out-between-my-fingers one. I hardly ever used Blogger as a result of this nasty side effect.

We’re in search of stars for the 4th of July.
