Today I participated in the first annual Salt Lake City Zombie Walk. I’m not sure if I’ll be able to properly convey my response: IT WAS THE BEST FUCKING THING I’VE EVER DONE IN UTAH! My voice is hoarse from moaning my way through SLC but it was 100% worth it. Super awesome thanks to dropdeadchris for kickin’ it with my undead style!
I woke up giddy and excruciatingly happy. Very similar to how it felt to wake up knowing you were going to Disneyland as a little kid.
My mother saw me wearing my moomoo and putting sponge rollers into my hair. She exclaimed, “You’re leaving the house like THAT?!” I didn’t even have on my makeup yet.
Shortly after completing my zombie makeup with some homemade blood, I crept into my mother’s bathroom and started tapping on her shower door. “Uuuuuuuu. Brraaaainns.”
She told me to go wake my father up for church. He wasn’t very pleased.
I could tell that both of my parents were thinking, “Zombies? Fake blood? Where did we go wrong???” They weren’t about to spoil the moment; my mother said she hadn’t heard me giggle so much, or seen me so happy, since the Christmas BEFORE I moved to Utah.












Ha ha I think we posted blog posts at about the same time! I had a blast today!
What a funny idea. Hee hee!
I am so coming to the next one! Your mu mu is wicked awesome!
You are so very, VERY awesome. An inspiration to us all.
Thank you so much for leaving the comment on mine, and here I am doing the same! Thanks for the pics and the report on what happened! Very awesome of you. If I had gold star stickers, you’d seriously be getting two! Please keep reading!
Hey, great job today, it was nice to meet you (and ddc)! I’ve got a couple shots of you, ddc and Sarah up at http://www.flickr.com/photos/calanan/sets/72157606652864542/ – more later.

I’ve heard of Zombie walks but I had no idea that SLC was going to have one. Looks like it was a blast. How many people did you infect?
That is absolutely too funny. And, of course, I was out of state for the first truly cool thing I could have seen in Utah.
omg
that is beyond awesome
way to rock the zombieness
Pretty cool.
Awww… you get to do ALL the fun stuff.
That is awesome. And hilarious. Hilariously awesome. Awesomely hilarious.
Pants – you look too cute for words!
You look very pretty with blood on your face.
That sentence made me uncomfortable.
drop dead chris,
BRAINS!
citystreams,
It was a blast!
sdragoc,
Yes, yes, YES! You must come next year!
sprizee,
I always knew I’d be an inspiration, I just didn’t know it would be bloody.
Gavin,
Thanks – it was a truly awesome day!
calanan,
It was nice to meet you as well! The first shot of ddc and I with Sarah is definitely my favorite shot of the day: it’s fantastic!
The Grunt,
Was too busy infecting to keep count.

Thanks Am!
apollocreed,
I suppose that makes a “that’s what he said” joke out of line?
holy hell! ive never heard of such a thing. but you seriously rocked that whole ensemble.
wonder what reaction you’d get if you posted one of those pics as your match profile?
I can’t imagine the response would any worse than what I received from douchebags when I had a profile picture of myself NOT bloodied up!
I have a crippling fear of zombies…now I won’t sleep tonight AND you’ve given me (another) reason to never visit Utah. Freakin weirdos.
thats so cool!
Too brilliant!! OMG what a perfect way to spend a Sunday in Utah.
How awesome is that? Looks like a great time!
That is so fucking cool!!!!! I wanna go on a zombie walk! …oh, wait. I think I do that all the time — but, it isn’t on purpose…
kisses,
matty
::jealous::
hehehe.. that looks like fun! Your make up looked awesome by the way. I want to know what your blood concoction was made out of. Very life like!
That is so so freakin’ cool. I want to go on a zombie walk. I mean, I could make a wicked zombie with the pumpkin in the baby holder. How sick would that be?
AWE. SOME.
What the hell are you drinking in that first shot, though?
I’ve had a weakness for zombies since that awesome 28 Days Later flick. You’re hot.
