Holy crap. Brad
Chambers made it. I cannot believe it. Well, no, I can believe it. Like I said
earlier, if anyone was going to have the mindset to stay rational when zombies
are chowing down on customers in your parking lot, it is Brad.
Not only did he make
it, he has five survivors with him. Three coworkers and two customers. Kasondra
is sending messages back and forth with him via the white board.
Honestly, I cannot believe it. Don’t get me
wrong. I am ecstatic. To be brutally truthful, God, you kind of owe us one or
two. Brad and Kasondra were supposed to get married this month so I think it is
divine will that these two have survived. (I swiped this pic from Kasondra’s
iPhone.) Tell me these two don’t deserve to be reunited.
So
there are six of them over there. The owner of the joint is a sweet girl named
Jenny. I am glad to hear that she made it. We went to school together but she
graduated a year ahead of me. I would duck in there from time to time when I
needed things, so I know Kelsey (kinda). She is this Indian girl that worked
the register. Keith is one of the reasons they survived. Nice guy, his
girlfriend worked in our bakery. I know him and Brad pal around. Then they
listed Shannon and Yulonda. I have to assume they are customers. (Is it wrong
that I have already made the decision to nickname Yulonda “Honey Bunny” because
of Pulp Fiction?)
But we are not out of
the woods yet. There is a lot of real estate between us and them. They are in a
hardware store. I am by no means a hardware guy but I have been in there a few
times. I am sure they have to have snack crackers and some break room food but
after 30 days, how are they even living. Next door to their location is a Dollar
General store that would have access to
a number of supplies. If they are raiding that store, then food would be in
plentiful supply. Their other neighbor is a bank which would offer zero by way
of supplies. (I think cash money is kind of worthless now.)
We have to get them
over here. And we have to figure out how. God may send us some assistance but He
is not going to just fairy wing them over here. It is going to be up to us…
