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"

  1. 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.

  6. 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.) ;-)
