Things I have learned this month

No cause for ceremony or explanation there. Things I have learned this month:

1) Don't blog about the hilarious time you met a drunken stranger dressed up as a zombie stripper, if you later realize you want to be friends with said drunk zombie stripper and then have to pretend she wasn't the main focus of your blog this month.

I'm not Undead yet, either! (More on that to follow)

I was walking back to the Village from a church celebration on a Saturday night during the zombie apocalypse, wondering how far the undead minions had spread from their original nest on Osborne, when I suddenly ran into one. It was a darkened street corner just before River intersects with More of River to become a 5-lane death street, and there was a six-foot-tall creature of the undead who may have been a schoolgirl or a stripper or a schoolgirl stripper in a past life, calmly wandering across River in her stiletto boots, waving down cars.

She was playing the part of a zombie (unfocused eyes, inability to stand straight, walk straight, or speak straight) so well that I was at first a bit afraid of her, and elected to remain on the other side of the street, but soon she was lurching towards me, until we were both on the corner of the 5-lane death street, and I was cowering against a lamp post and asking her to please not eat my brain.
