Sep. 24th, 2005 10:01 amEveryone keeps saying that this was just the beginning, that there are going to be more zombies, and that we're going to have to fight again. Frankly, the idea of a larger repeat of last night makes me feel kind of sick, and angry that people can't be a little more optimistic.
But then I remember that there are people here with connections to...whatever is out there in the world besides us, and that these people know things, and that when they say there are going to be more, then it's really time to admit that this isn't over.
And well, I don't plan on hiding. I've finally gotten back to a point in my life where I can live with myself on a regular basis. I'm enjoying that quite a bit. But I don't think I'll be able to keep doing it if I hide somewhere safe while everyone else takes the risk.
Basically, I want to fight, and this whole thing is my really fitting-but-still-long-winded way of asking if anyone can teach me how to use a real weapon. I'd like to be more useful than being the girl with the baseball bat whose only use is beating up zombies that have already been re-killed.

I want that back when you're done with it.
