Happy Zombie Day!

You're probably a little confused right now.  The way i see it, there are two different camps of people when it comes to Valentines day.  Those who love it, and those who hate it.  I don't fit into either group.  I am completely indifferent, and i find it a somewhat irrelevant and confusing day.  It's like this religious holiday for a brutally martyred saint, but then we throw in cupid from roman mythology, only the cupid is a weird little baby that flies.  And shoots you?  I don't get it at all.

 Either way, I don't like pre-fixe meals, or chocolate, or roses, but i am also not an angry single gal.  Thus Zombie Day was born!!

 Zombie day started 5 years ago.  When it comes down to it, I love my friends.  And i love Zombie movies!!  So every February 14th, we all come together to watch zombie movies, and drink bloody marys.  I think it is every bit as nice as romance.  

 This year (ok, every year) we are watching "Wild Zero,"  The cult classic japanese greaser punk zombie movie.  There is a drinking game that goes along with it, and it always ends up being a crowd pleaser.
It's gonna be awesome.

 Feel free to have your own satellite zombie day parties - All you have to do is watch a zombie movie and drink booze!  Easiest.  holiday.  ever.

 So, happy zombie day to all, and to all, "BRAINSSSSSSSSSSSSSS"

    How fun! I'm pretty indifferent to Valentine's Day too - I like to joke that it was actually named after the St. Valentine's massacre, since that's just as heartwarming. My best non-Valentine's celebration did involve a week-long drinking streak (some people would call this a binge - we did not) with another single gal. We weren't being bitter, we were just celebrating how awesome we both were.

      Thanks! We actually made it into the west lafayette newspaper with our zombie bridal party. Not a lot of news there...

    Good One!! I have ALWAYS been in the dislike camp when it comes to V-Day. I don't want some one telling my hubby that he should buy me chocolates or flowers ....I want him to do it b/c HE wants to do it.

    (I must say the last couple of years he has too....but I really don't care either way.) ;-)
