Dreams...brought to you by over zombification

After watching the above, Zombies: A Living History, and reading Day By Day Armageddon before falling asleep, I was plagued (heh!) by a long and drawn out zombie escape dream.

A group of us had started our long trek to find freedom, and while we rarely encounter zombies, we were living in fear of other humans. At one point, we found ourselves sneaking through an area that was apparently the motor pool for extras from the Mad Max films. Then we escaped down to the river and there was a thoroughfare that was running along that was domed over and very pleasant. Then it turned into a dream where the only person who was left in our group that I was friends with ended up yelling at me for alternately getting them involved in this situation and for caring too much because it was their life and none of my business what they did.

Yes, this was an awesome dream.

A note of the media that I consumed:

Zombies: A Living History was a nice primer for someone who had never explored the history of zombies or was familiar with the Romero style zombie that exists, en masse, in popular culture. It would be perfect for someone like my mother who does not get obsessed with things as silly as zombies but is interested in their larger cultural implications.

Day By Day Armageddon is a wonderful zombie book by J.L. Bourne that covers the outbreak of the end-of-times from the perspective of a Naval Aviator (think...Maverick and Goose) through his diary. (Another question: why do so many zombie survival scenarios play out in Texas? Is it a commentary on the current Governor and the previous one?) I am two months in and I am hooked. I made sure to purchase the second book in the series when I was fifteen pages into the first.
