I had no idea that there was a Blog Like the End of the World day yesterday until I saw Jenni the Odd's post with the link. After that, I decided to play along. I'll admit, I got the premise all wrong. Prolly because I'm not actually a big zombie movie person.
I find the idea (outside of the pufferfish paralysis poison and religious conviction of "I'm a zombie") kinda silly. But I'm a big fan of post apocalyptic type movies (and yet I've never seen Zardoz). So I decided to have some fun with this while referenceing The Omega Man, one of my faves, over and over again.
Another thing I noticed was several people posted what looked like fiction instead of blogs. So I decided to have some fun with it by posting what I thought blogs would be like if Zombies sprouted from the ground and nothing changed. :D My first post (the MRE one)was a standard blog post. The second, was a picture post, with some added braggadocio. The third was a Zombie Day Meme, the fourth was cryptic, the fifth was a webcam pic, and the sixth was a phone cam pic. I figured I covered all the bases. :D
In case you missed some of the fun Zombie Stuff, here're some of the neater ones I saw on my FList:

...and interview footage for two of the people we interviewed are not on the tie code footage DVDs that arrived in the snailbox today.
...and if the window is met, there won't be any time to reshoot the narrator until after the pilot episode is produced, no matter what changes need to be made.
...and I'm up past my bedtime on half the sleep I needed for today.
...and I could care less about the zombies, I just wish Chip was here with his camera and lights so I could grill them on the episode topic.
