Memphis Memphis Zombie Massacre

Ray called this a rant…

… but that’s just because he saw the length and didn’t read the content. I say it’s not a rant because the strongest profanity I used was the word “pissed.” It’s also not a rant because I just wanted to record all the details of yesterday evening’s tryst with MATA before those details got eaten by the virus that lives inside my preggo brain. (You ladies with children know the one I’m talking about.) Plus…

Memphis Zombie Massacre

MZM2010

Phew. Memphis Zombie Massacre 2010 is in the books. We pulled it off again, and I think it went incredibly well. This time our numbers shot up and my own conservative estimate is about 500 people came out to participate. The number of people who came out to watch the insane processional had to be in the hundreds as well. I talked to a few onlookers, including a couple who’d gotten to Club 152 hours…

Memphis Zombie Massacre project 365 (2009)

Day 114: MZM ’09

Well well well, this year’s march of the undead featured a wedding, a zombified newsman, and tons of children. Always something keeping it fresh. I think the route was a little long and complicated. Noted. I was so happy to have friends come out to support it and get all goried up. (Amanda and Brandon made pretty hilarious zombies.) Kristin came all the way from Nashville and helped wrangle zombies while I ran around taking…

I’ve said the word “zombie” so many times this week that I’m kind of tired of it and would like to not say it again for a few months. So it goes. Every year. I’m paranoid about turnout, of course. I always imagine that it will be, like, thirty people, all of whom will be immensely bored. It’ll be good. I know it…

Battle on Beale?

It looks as though Memphis’ undead uprising these past few years has caught the attention of a group of folks who, according to their MySpace page, want to “shoot ’em in the head.” Their “about me”: The Shelby Metro Zombie Response Unit is a group of like minded individual with one common goal:To be prepared in the likely event of a zombie outbreak. These kids even have a password-protected bulletin board site, with topics like…

Almost … done …

In just a few, I will be joining the shuffling throngs — again — to try and wrap up my shopping. Plopping a “vacation” and a couple of days of sickness right in the middle of December really threw off my timing and I’ve only just now gotten to paw through the bags of acquired knickknacks in my closet to see where I stand on everyone. I feel like I’ve been assembling Christmas gifts since…
