That's what's missing from all the zombie books, movies and video games - the flies.įellow readers, if you have a recommendation to put me back on the proper Zombie path, I would love to hear it. Eleventy billion flies didn't help with the gag factor one bit, I'll just say that.Ī couple of hours later, with a scrubbed freezer full of charcoal and baking soda (which works by the way) - freshly showered and downing my third beer - it occurred to me that 1) the zombie apocalypse is going to smell REALLY bad, and 2) you would hear and see the hoard of flies long before any zombie could possibly sneak up on you.

We opened the lid to start unloading all that once, lovely meat, and I think it took less than three minutes for our driveway to look like something out of Amityville Horror. Well, we are out in the driveway, with the gloves, the scrub brushes, the bleach, the hose, the triple bagged, heavy duty trash bags, etc. My husband used the leaf blower and decided to borrow the electric outlet from the freezer in our garage, and then forgot to plug the freezer back in. Here's this other little thing that happened while reading this that kinda messed up my whole Zombie apocalyptic universe. Read it if you want, but for Zombie-loving sakes don't pay for it! I know!

Just take a minute to let that whole sentence marinate. Right up until the moment a few still sentient zombies founded a freaky zombie religion, and the mummies in the Egyptian section of the Metropolitan Museum woke up and started jiggling around in their mummified coffins.
