Apocalypse Baby! Part 2 - The Big Depression
We are back to the second part of Elvis's Journey,
PArt 2 - The Big Depression
Dear Diary,
Since I left college it all went to hell... Apparently there was an apocalypse and the world has ended. There is nobody left but a few survivors. Of course, being the wonderful and priceless human being I am, I am still here. I even have a house, thanks to the Secret Society the voice in my head made me join.
But being alive is the only positive here.
First of all, my face melted after I grew up - just like that. I was pretty freaked out, but the Voice told me how to fix it.
Then, I have these horrible clothes and look like my grandpa at the best. I mean, shorts, man, SHORTS! Of course, there are also no stores to buy new clothes, no food, no water or a shower, and no people around at all. I don't know what happened to my babys, nobody is even calling any more and the phone lines don't usually work.
This is my shack - it is not much, but I managed to dig out a trashy car and trying to restore it now. I also have a grill, and a bed...
No mirrors though, such a shame... Could at least enjoy my own company, but alas...
Good thing the voice is sometimes talking to me... Even if she does not tell me nice stuff...
Hey voice, what should I do now? There is no hope, I want to just sit here and die....
You have to find a job, honey. Once you are good enough at it thinkgs will start getting better...
I have an "Owie" on my lip. If you kiss it, you will make things better...
Elvis, I thought we agreed on that already!
I got a job in the Paranormal career after a week of feeling sorry for myself. It starts early. I am afraid of the dark, and it is cold out, and they don't give us any food.
If I ever miss a day of work, they will kick me out... I hate my life!
Hopefully I will be able to succeed and at least calm the spirits a bit. Thats the last thing I need now - darkness filled with Ghosts, phew...
The neighbours are not very nice either....
"Wait, neighbour, I want to hug you... I am drowning in your eyes..."
"Get off me, weirdo"
I miss college... I am so lonely...
Dear bunny, You're like a dictionary, you add meaning to my life!
The Zombie chick thought I was crazy, but I learned to totally ignore their kind after multiple attempts to connect...
Hi, creepy zombie guy, how are you doing?
Braaaaaains....
Do you like playing games? Oh man, I miss playing games. I found a toy in the ruins yesterday, and I felt so nostalgic...
Grrr... Braaaaainssssssss...
Ok, never mind.
Dear Diary,
Haven't written for a while. Things didn't change much but I am moving on with my work, and I am trying to restore my car so my friends can come over more often. I reconnected with some of my loves already, but they are afraid of the zombies and don't ever come over.
The big problem is I am so hungry...
Yes, dummy, because you keep stuffing yoiur facer in the fridge! One meal per day, remember...
Shut up, voice!
I could not pay Johnny the comb and they took my table and typewriter... They can take everything I have (Please take the bed, please take the bed, I hate where it is but am too weak to move it), but they will not break my spirit! I will find another table!
Will write again soon...
Dear Diary,
Something awasome happened yesterday~! I met one of my girls from college! She hasn't changed at all, just has aquired a creepy blue floating jacket, much like the floating hands one of my exes had... It has always had a very strong effect on me... She stayed the night and somehow I don't feel so bad as before....
Oh, and I have only one level left to top my career... The voice said I can then marry Samantha... Err Jessica - anyway, the girl that matches my hairdo perfectly! YAY, so excited!
AAAND I DID IT! I Am a CUlt Leader! Like, I have a whole cult named after me, and Death itself has calmed down due to our rituals.
And most importantly - there is hope! People can travel again, and I can finally invite my love, the apple of my eye, the one and only Sam... err Jessica to be my wife and repopulate the earth!
My darling, welcome home!
Do you know what my shirt is made of? Boyfriend material.
Jessica is a very cool girl, actually , now that I got to know her. She is a fortune sim, and is extremely active and neat, and also mean like me... we can make plans for world dominance muhaha. Jessica is only one level shy from topping the Medical Carreer which will bring us showers soon.
Thank the VOICE for this, I told you asking about carreers will help...
She also hates to play chess, like, big time.
Too bad, since this is the only fun we've got here....
Ok,maybe not the ONLY fun we get here... heh heh.
Dear Diary,
You can't believe what happened! I Died yesterday! It was horrible... I started being very very hungry...
"Yes cause you stuffed your head in the fridge again"
Anyways, I was very hungry, and suddenly fell down... I saw light, I felt totally numb.
Jessica pleaded with the Grim Reaper....
You know what she said? PLease, death, he is an idiot, poor thing would not even find the way to the afterlife....
Shut up, voice! She pleaded for my life and got me back... She even fought death for me...
Let's hope you remember her name from now on haha.
I most definitely will...
But that is not all!!
I am ALIVE!!!
I am Pregnant!!!
I AM ALIVE.... Wait, what?
She was pregnant and I was alive! Right then and there I had the most absurd wish to marry her...
My darling, I wanna live in your socks so I can be with you every step of the way. Will you marry me?
NO! I will not marry you!
She broke my heart... And then the most unexpected thing happened again.
I will NOT marry YOU, YOU will marry ME! I was the one who decided to propose first, ok!
She wanted me! We married right then and there, exchanged rings, kissed, and almost puked because we both stank so much...
Ï want to stink with you together forever, baby... Fight zombies and play chess until the world goes back to normal!
Me too... Going to wash my hands now/
The whole day was so exciting! Can't wait for my gorgeous genes to be passed on to the new generation!
So this is how thigs are going, dear diary! We are stuck in the apocalypse, and we are stuck in this house with each other. The world is not so hopeless any more, and once she gets her career done, we might be even be able to smell good...
And Jessica... she stinks, she is annoying as hell and likes to make fun of me, but she is MY girl and we are having a baby. Life is as good as it can get given the curcumstances....
TBC...
