Let's talk about how hard the little things ruled tonight. I was at blind bob's which suuuucked. I wasn't working and it was like the fucking bro-deo in there... all douche bags.
Anyway, around 6, I read on Twitter that there was a zombie walk at 11 tonight in the Oregon District. (Where Bob's is)
I was not able to prepare for this, but I figured I'd watch...
now the youth of Dayton... well, let's say they have a way of trying to organize things and really deliver... disappointment. So I wasn't expecting much. I figured I wasn't going to get all zombied up and show up to like 20 people...
I walked out right before 11 and kind of hung around... and then it happened. Holy jesus why didn't I bring my camera?? There were well over 100, I would go as far as to say there were 150 people... all dressed like zombies, moaning and groaning and waddling down 5th street. They were IN the street, on the sidewalks and everywhere in between. They were bumping into moving cars, making crazy noises and scaring the living fuck out of a lot of old people... I don't know what old people were doing in cars on 5th street at 11:00pm, but whatever, they were horrified and rolling up their windows.
I did the only thing I knew I could do... I called
chelsealj Chelsea Johnson.
It was sooo funny. She could HEAR the zombies and "Thriller" playing somewhere across the street. All of 5th street was alive with zombie noises. Cars were honking... people were freaking out... it was pretty awesome.
Also, when I decided to leave the bar... I ran into
stratton_blair Katie Blair outside! It's been a really long time since I've seen her and we hugged and chatted a bit before I got in the car with Brian's parents and they dropped me off at home. I saw Wendel and Beev outside Therapy Cafe'... along with some other people I know... I kind of say "hey" but hurried off because I just wanted to get home and get to bed lol. (For those new to my journal or not from Dayton, Therapy Cafe is a popular bar which is located in the same building as my loft.)
Now I'm snuggled in bed with my pup and my kitten, texting
graverobbing Liz and waiting for this cough syrup to kick in and knock me out.
Tomorrow... all day work-a-thon... 9-5:30 at Hauer Music and 5:30-whenever...
