Zombies 101

BRAAAIIINNNSSSSS!!!! What's your first thought when you hear that? Zombies, of course. But why are zombies so determind to eat the victim's brain? Perhaps it's because THEY don't even have one (we'd be in more trouble if zombies were "smart"). Maybe we think they eat only brains, well prefer brains, because that's what Hollywood has drilled into our heads. So do they REALLY prefer brains, or is it just something made up in Hollywood? Well, let's look into a little research.

When a person gets infected with the zombie virus, the virus kills their brain starting at the front & making its way to the back while skipping the core area. This area is actually kept a live by the virus. So, zombies are TECHNICALLY not brainless. Primal instintics (located in the core area) needs food to survive. This "food" can be animals, flesh, brains, etc. As a result, zombies are not just after your brains, they want EVERYTHING.

10 Things NOT to Do During an Outbreak
According to Zombiephiles.

10. Don't set zombies on fire. They smell terrible.
9. Don't get sentimental. Zombies won't.
8. Don't forget to shut the door behind you. Zombies often come over without calling first.
7. Don't keep zombies in the basement, even if they're your zombie family.
6. Don't try to reunite with friends/family over long distances.
5. Don't go down (basements/sewers/etc). Zombies can go down too.
4. Don't broadcast your presence. Zombies may be listening.
3. Don't stand in front of the window.
2. Don't get too creative with zombie defense.
1. Don't be "that one @$$hole" in your group.

Halloween Party/Bash & Contest

The Halloween party / costume contest Saturday was LAME. I had fun walking around, freaking out people, getting my photo taken with 10000 strangers, even made 3 little kids cry by just walking by them, but the costume contest was the lamest thing I have ever seen. The rules were, the judges had to give you a ticket in order for you to be in the contest. One of them stopped directly in front of me, smiled, and walked off. No ticket. I mean, I thought my costume was pretty cool, even worthy for a chance. I don't care so much about winning as I do about being in a contest. My husband does all of my costumes (hand made) & I think he does an amazing job. Everyone that I saw Saturday even thought so. The judges were to busy looking for a stupid lady dressed up in a tampon box. Seriously, a tampon box got a ticket & I didn't... I was very disappointed that night. But I have entered 3 other online contests. Voting has only started for one though & it's the banner up top above the giveaway part. Please click it :) This Halloween I was a Serial Killer Zombie (4 hours of work), Fallout 3 Ghoul (3 hours of work), & a Mutated Cannibal that is pictured below (7 hours of work). Hope you all had a spook-tacular Halloween!


P.S.: Please help me in the two Halloween contests that are posted above the giveaways up top. The 2nd one you can vote 5 times per day (even on the same person). Please help me.
