Love in the land of zombies

Love in the land of Zombies


Contrary to popular belief, zombies don’t look like the undead. They don’t go around moaning and trying to eat your brain. For the most part they look just like the rest of us. And as in the case of my zombie they can be very beautiful. I met my zombie just prior to her going into full zombie mode. We did the things that normal people do. We went to dinner, talked and just generally did the dating thing. I should have noticed though that she wasn’t quite normal when many, many days would go by without word. This is common behavior for zombies. They have cycles of increased zombification and times when their levels are so low they seem just like the rest of us. The interesting part about zombies is that they become zombies of their own free will. No one casts a spell or whacks them with some magic hammer. No they actually compete for it and then sign on the dotted line for the privilege. They forsake their families and pets and boyfriends for the zombie way. My zombie is, or at least was, just great. She was smart and funny and just about the right amount of odd. But she went into full zombie mode so long ago I’m starting to forget what she looked like. Someday soon she will be back but man it’s hard, dating a zombie.


UPDATE: Well I've gotten a lot of emails about this one. It's not supposed to be some sad "wah look at how hard my life is" thing. this is just a bit of funny nonsense about dating a woman in medical residency. You can all relax now.
