So. I just watched 28 Weeks Later. And I am disturbed. I'm a big fan of the first movie, and while I didn't find either one particularly scary in your typical scary movie way, 28 Weeks Later was almost too disturbing, disgusting, terrifying, and sad. There were, somehow, a few bright spots in the first one, but this one is just so bleak. You don't normally describe a zombie* movie as "realistic," but the infection, quarantines, military presence, rebuilding...it all just seems way too possible. I almost felt sick after watching it.
I mean, it's a good movie though. You should get it.
(*I know they're not technically zombies, but you follow me.)

I could go for a slice of pie
Hey kittens!
What has the Chaser been up to lately, you've been asking yourselves. Well, not much I'm afraid.
The good news is that I got a promotion at work which as been pretty sweet. I already knew how to do most of my job duties, so it's kind of like I'm just getting extra money without having to learn new things or do much more work. I like my new schedule, and I'll like my new paycheck when I get one (I mean, it's still pathetically small, but, like, less pathetically small than before). I'm going to the pumpkin show this weekend, which is always fun (read: delicious). I'm hoping to do some other Halloween things, like a haunted house or maybe even something cheesey like a hayride, but I'm worried that might not happen. I'm also thinking about planning some sort of birthday event on Nov 16, but I always change my mind on that. What do you think? Drinking for the big two-five?
The bad...meh. Nothing too bad. I feel like I haven't been seeing my friends at all. I missed out on all the $10 fares to Florida today, even though they released them at like 4 a.m. and I was up and on the website before 11. I also missed a last minute opportunity to go to the Wilco concert tonight. Lincoln and I both still have whatever messed up thing is making us itch, and I am skeptical that we're ever going to find out what it is.
The ugly: your face. OH SNAP!
I'm gonna try to be more interesting on here, I swear. That's like the bullshit blogger's mantra though, so we'll see what happens.
