1 TV character (other than TWD): Ragnar Lothbrok; Vikings (sword/axe)

1 friend: Jackie; soultwin, cousin (spiked baseball bat – cause she’s badass enough to pull it off)

1 freebie: 10k from Z Nation (sniper/slingshot)

Items:

1 comfort item: Picture of kids/family; to keep me going

1 food item: Beef Jerky

1 medicine/first aid item: Inhaler

1 hygiene item: Deodorant

1 freebie: LifeStraw; water purifying straw

 

Background:

Outpost: My parents house. they have a stockpile of weapons and on a small lake. Also close to a distribution center. That is the meeting spot decided in our family. (Yes, we have a plan!)

Outbreak: Methuselah Virus(copyright)
Cause of the apocalypse: Scientists created a parasitic host to slow down the aging process when it went horribly wrong, creating mindless humanoids with only one thing on their minds – warm-blooded creatures. The virus spreads when host bites another victim, allowing parasite to inject eggs into the blood stream. Depending on the health of the new host, the eggs can take up to a couple of days to hatch and attack hosts system, slowly turning them.
Cure: N/A – temporary cures; destroy the heart and/or brain

1 item you NEED to find:  Pharmaceuticals/Pharmacy; yanno, for illnesses & an inhaler

1 item you WANT to find: Chocolate factory; What? Chocolate lasts forever, provides energy, and I LOVE it!

Method of travel: Sturdy vehicles and a surplus of gas/diesel from the air force base. If it’s been tapped out then we are screwed and on foot we will go until we can find vehicles to siphon.

Express Yourself

Sept. 22-26: What did you want to be when you grew up?

For the longest time I wanted to be a Vet Tech. But once I did my internship… I discovered I didn’t have it in me. I couldn't hold an animal down to put it down. Broke my heart.

So instead I decided I wanted to be a Correctional Therapist. However, sadly, I never finished college. It would be nice to go back and finish tho… maybe when my husband is done with his manufacturing degree.

 

Underrated Treasures Blogfest

Everyone has a favorite movie or band that no one else has ever heard about. For whatever reason, they remain undiscovered and underrated. Now is your chance to tell the world about this obscure treasure!

On Monday, September 22, post about your favorite unknown

MOVIE – BAND/ARTIST – TV SHOW – BOOK


Post about one or all four – dealer’s choice!

**Movie:
Ginger Snaps
 

**Band:

Fever Ray aka Karin Elisabeth Dreijer Andersson
I know I have mentioned her before and I’m sure some people have heard about it, especially if you watch Vikings. She is part of an Electronic Pop Swedish duo The Knife.
 

**TV Show:

Dracula
This show was only on for one season last year and then cancelled. I’m totally bummed about it!
