It happened...
It actually happened. I knew it would, but I didn't want to believe it ever could. I haven't been watching the news, but I have seen bits and pieces on various sites. Every time I found something, though, it quickly disappeared, often taking the entire page with it and leaving nothing but an error or a mysterious government notice.
You never think it'll come to you though. I mean, Gainesville? It's a small town pretty much in the middle of no-where... Just a bunch of college kids, and during the summer, it's a ghost town here anyway. Anyway, my brain told me it was here the other day. The people who live next door, they have the most annoying dog ever born. Well, I guess I should say "had," I don't think it stayed. Anyway, it just stopped barking the other day. And not just him, it seemed like the entire town was quiet, devoid of the usual bird calls and other animal noises.
I got to campus earlier today and almost no one was there. I actually found some parking... some really good parking, and that was a little weird. Got to class, and there were only a handful of students there. The teacher never showed up, I hope she's safe. After waiting for a little while, on of the campus police came and told us all to come to the Reitz. He was really panicked, and the few of us that were there immediately left the classroom. On the way over here, I saw some people across the lawn. They were walking with a weird limp, and on some of the ones wearing white, it looked like they had gotten some kind of dark liquid on them. Looking back now, I'm pretty sure it was blood.
I'm here now, but just wanted to see if any of you had heard anything about any other outbreaks. That has to be what this is. All the movies, all the books I've read, I thought it could never really come true. I thought it could never be anything more than fiction. I was wrong. I don't know how long it will be until I can say this without feeling weird, but here it goes: Zombies are here, be careful.
