Both great options!!!

The first time we traveled together we had been dating about a year and were flying to Florida for a cruise out of Miami. Glenn never really flew anywhere besides Colorado to visit his brother. I've flown all over the place from a young age so pretty much had my routine down. We got to our seats and I pulled my walkman (tape version) and a book out of my bag. He just stared at me blankly and said, "what are you doing - I thought we were going to talk?". I replied, "do you mean to tell me you brought NOTHING to occupy yourself on a 3 hour flight?" o_O I calmly put my things back in my bag and struck up some conversation. We were still dating. Nowadays I pack travel items for him like I do for the kids!!!

The worst is when a stranger wants to converse with you for the whole flight. I sat with one lady once on a flight to Philly and I swear I knew her whole history before we taxied out to the tarmac. After considerable time in the air she finally asked me what I did, so I told her I taught middle school math. She rolled her eyes and said "God bless you!!!!" to which I immediately replied "Yes He has!" She shut up for the rest of the flight.

If my dream is correct:

1. Zombies CAN swim!
2. They can also sail, but not as well as I can.
3. It is very difficult to chop a head off, especially if all you have is a kitchen cleaver.
Zombies also have the ability to somehow catch up with their victim(s), regardless of how slow they hobble or how fast their victim can run. It's kinda an unspoken rule of being in a horror flick:

-If ever you are being chased by something, and you flee into your car...it will NEVER start.

-If you make it back to your home/apt, you will either a). Have to fiddle through all of your keys to find the one which unlocks the front door for about 5-min, or b). Drop your keys on the ground when you pull them outta your pocket. Fact.

-If ever there is some sort of evil/demon child in your horror film, it will almost always use that overdone cliche line: "It's time to play."

-If you are one of the lead roles in your horror film, you have a pretty good shot of coming out alive. If your character name is: "Janitor #3", "Random salesman" or "Mechanic 1"...you ain't got a shot in heaven or hell of making it. As a matter of fact, you're probably the first one to get clobbered.

-Showers & bath tubs: Just avoid them at all costs. Seriously. Nothing good ever happens in a shower stall or bathtub during a horror film. Nothing.

-Your phone line will somehow always be dead when you need it or your cell phone with no service. Just face it.

And finally...

-It's OKAY TO MOVE TO A NEW HOUSE! Seriously, had I been the main character in Amityville, the film probably would've lasted 5-min at tops, 'cause I'd be outta that house after the first ghostly sound or light flicker.

And don't forget - stay with the whole group at all times, and never go down in the basement. (Or up in the attic) If you have sex with someone who isn't your wife or husband - you're dead.

-Never shut the door of your medicine cabinet. There will always be a reflection of something standing behind you.

-Pay close attention to your surrounding theme music. That's a great way to tell what the bad guy/thing is up to. Cheerful music, or no music at all? You're probably fine.
Jaws theme or Michael's Halloween theme being softly heard? You'd better alter your location with great haste.

I think you just hit upon the KEY to your survival....it's all about the music.

Woke up this morning to 65 degree temperatures and 97 percent humidity. It's not raining - it's just foggy. Foggy as in it's tough to see the house across the street. Can't bode well for seeing zombies from a distance and getting a running start.

Foggy and rainy here too - might have to do our walking at the mall today. I hate that....

When I was little a friend of my mom's had a heart transplant. It was the early 80's so that type of thing was extremely rare - not that it's commonplace now. Anyway, he needed to walk after the surgery and started a "mall walking club". There's a plaque for him at the meeting spot and people meet every day about 2 hours before the stores open and walk the mall. He has since passed away (the transplant extended his life by around 20 years!) but every time I see that plaque I smile.

I make it a point not to set foot in them during the Christmas season which appently now runs from September to January. If I can't find it online, I don't buy it.

We've been doing this walking thing for a couple of weeks now, but so far those lbs just won't leave. It's really getting discouraging.

There was a dumb show "Valerie" in the 80s with Valerie Harper. Their next door neighbors, Mr. & Mrs. Pool, were trying to lose weight and said that they walk to the mall every day and take the bus home. So Valerie asked why they don't just walk half way and turn around and walk home and Mrs. Pool said "then how would we get the corndogs?" I watched a lot of TV growing up.

Yeah, well, that's not happening. We do watch what we eat, but it's just frustrating.
