So I am going to talk about zombies in WoW, but first I have to write about my friend Agent EE.
She has had an extremely rough couple of days, but things will always get better :)
I came up with the top ten reason Agent EE is super awesome!
Not that any proof is required, but I just needed to get it off my chest.
#1 Super cute!
#2 Super sense of funky fashion!
#3 Her Love of Cephalopods!
#4 Her passion about everything!!
#5 Best ideas of fun things to do!
#6 Creative in so many ways!
#7 Has experienced life in ways that a lot of people would never even think to try!
#8 Inspires others to seek out passion and fun in life!
#9 Gives hope to those who had very little!
#10 She is the most giving, honest, life filled person that I have ever met! No matter what happens in my life, she will have always profoundly affected me!
Ok, now that that mush is over..... I swear I am turning into a girl :P
So, I have 3+ friends who play the evil and addicting World of Warcraft. I guess for an upcoming expansion that they are releasing, and probably also because Halloween is almost here, they had started introducing Zombies to the game.
I guess there are tainted boxes and cockroaches in the game, if you click on them you get infected. At first the infection would take 10 mins to kill you, and then you become a zombie.
After that, you gain Zombie powers and lose health over time. To gain health you must.... take a guess, attack other players and computer controlled characters in the game. Doing so causes them to become infected, and eventually turns them into zombies. Eventually you can create a small army of zombies who then can roam the land spreading their unique style of culture :)
My friends who first encountered it said it was just like being in a zombie movie. Before they were killed and turned, they said that there were so many zombies coming from all over, that they were frantic and scared.
Now, days later, it only takes 2 mins or less to become infected. So it makes playing the actual game really hard as there are so many zombies running around raiding the towns and quest areas.
I wish I was still playing the game, and could have experienced the initial invasion, it would have been awesome!
Just in case the infection spreads to the real world, some required reading would be "World War Z" and "The Zombie Survival Guide" both full of stories and tips to help you survive in a zombie filled world.

Oh, and he does have one about robots, but robots aren't that scary are they?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/How_to_Survive_a_Robot_Uprising
And yes, I google, or Wikipedia everything! It's like a joke I heard, there is no more wondering about stuff anymore like when you were a kid, just google it!
Oh, and I have to give props to my buddy to told me that all she blogs about are top ten lists. Thanks, jodiisallaboutjodi

Killer plants!!
So I am getting over my sudden illness. Last night I got really sick with flu like symptoms, slept 14 hours, and im feeling a bit better now. I watched the rest of the Sara Conner Chronicles, so far its pretty good.
I stayed home from work, and I think I should go in tomorrow, as I have a meeting in the morning that might be important.
I also watched "The Happening" by that M. Night guy. It was weird, but I think I liked it. In a way it was pretty depressing.
I still have to make up a song for Agent EE. I made up one based off an Adam Sandler audio skit, but I couldn't lie and say it was completely mine :(
I also played a little counter strike source, I love the zombie maps. Although they can get annoying after awhile. Basically one person spawns as a zombie and runs around infecting everybody else on the map. The uninfected have to hide or barricade themselves in areas.
Some of the maps are pretty sweet, and the zombie skins (what they look like) are also pretty creepy and cool. Be warned, some are pretty gruesome :P

sup ya'll tiger woods ya'll
Hey, did I mention that I am a media junkie?
Either way, I have to thank Agent EE for sending me links to cool new music that I would otherwise not be exposed too.
Ween, MGMT, mother mother, Chicane, Tegan and Sara, Small Sins, um, probably a few more that I can't recall :)
The music is mostly indie, I think Tegan and Sara are the closest thing to mainstream in that list.
I usually am only exposed to mainstream sadly, mostly because I am not cool enough to know about indie artists. I don't really listen to the radio (CJSW) or watch the indie shows on Much Music or MTV.
I downloaded the Sara Conner Chronicles, so I will probably watch that all night :( stupid media junkie.
Hopefully consuming all this media will one day pay off. Maybe I'll come up with a 'get rich quick' scheme that involves media and the Internet :P
If anybody has an idea for me to get rich, let me know. If it works I will give you half.
I really want to buy a fog machine for Halloween. I went to 2 Canadian tires and they were sold out. Wal-mart might have one, but Wal-mart is evil. Will I be tempted, and support the big blue box? I saw a documentary on people who live in small towns that try to keep wall mart out of there towns. It's funny though, about half of the town wants it, the other half doesn't.

I was thinking if they were cheap enough, I would surround my house with them, that way the zombies wont find me ;)

yep, im sick
So I actually have a cold. I can always tell when one is one the way. It always starts as a sore throat, and then goes from there. I was trying to get my sleep, and fight it off. However, it didn't seem to help.
*sigh*
Anyways, aside from being sick and grumpy, I rediscovered the joys of downloading comic book torrents. I did it before awhile back for some obscure stuff, but then the thought occurred to me, "Hey, I could probably get almost any comic that I have ever wanted to read!".
I did some researching on Wikipedia to find out which series I might want to grab first, and I discovered that there was a Marvel Zombie series put out.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marvel_Zombies
It also included crossover with the infamous Ash from the Evil dead/Army of Darkness universe.
I wont give much away, however it was a soso read. Some of it was funny, but very morbid at times and gory. So reader beware :P
Also a few of the events erked me, especially some of the deaths that occured, and the characters that were zombified.
I am not much of a comic book geek, I don't collect, but I do like to follow the story lines of the major characters in the Comic Book Universes.
I wonder if comic books are eligible as possible book club materials.....
*sigh*
