I have been walking all day.‭ ‬I‭’‬m trying to get as far away from the city as possible.‭ ‬I can‭’‬t use the roads as that‭’‬s where the zombies are.‭ ‬It looks like the fires have also driven them out of the cities.‭ ‬Its‭ ‬weird are they on the roads because they are easier to walk on or is there some kind of residual memory that tells them this is what they are supposed to do.‭ ‬I walk parallel to the road but a couple of hundred yards into the trees.‭ ‬I can see the them walking some of them look almost peace full as if they are out for a stroll but‭ ‬I know what they would do if they see me or if they see anyone like me.‭ ‬It‭’‬s all smash kill and then back to strolling.‭ ‬I need to find a gun all I have in my supplies is a knife and a flare gun.‭ ‬More evidence I‭’‬m losing my mind what the hell do I think I‭’‬m going to need to signal.‭ ‬Maybe‭ ‬I‭’‬ll decide it‭’‬s too much one day and just send up the flare and wait for the zombies to get me.

Fires started in the city last night.‭ ‬They spread ridiculously quickly.‭ ‬I almost didn‭’‬t make it out.‭ ‬I don‭’‬t know how they started but I know there is no one left to put them out.‭ ‬They will burn until everything in their path is gone and nothing left on earth can change that.‭ ‬I grabbed what food‭ ‬I could and the emergency bag so I got cloths and survival gear enough to keep me going for a few days.‭ ‬But I dropped my gun.‭ ‬Good bye secure house,‭ ‬bolted doors and larder full of food.‭ ‬Now I‭’‬m cold and I‭’‬m exposed but I‭’‬m alive.‭ ‬So I guess‭ ‬it‭’‬s time to move on.‭ ‬I‭’‬m heading away from the city,‭ ‬hopefully there will be less zombies the further out I go.

I shot my first zombie in the head today.‭ ‬I was a couple of blocks over scouting out the‭ ‬neighbourhood when I saw a girl being chased by two zombies I fired my gun and winged one of them the other ran at me and I got a clean head shot from close range.‭ ‬Well ok I missed with the first shot and he was almost on top of me when I fired but I did it.‭ ‬The girl ran straight past me she was so intent on getting away from the zombies I‭ ‬don‭’‬t even know if she saw me.‭ ‬Still it‭’‬s good to know there are a few of us humans still running around.‭ ‬I didn‭’‬t follow her I figure I never really trusted people before the end why start now‭? ‬I can‭’‬t imagine running after her and saying hey person I never met would you like to come live with me‭? ‬Of course I‭’‬m trust worthy I just shot that guy who up until a week ago was just like you and me and now I‭’‬m covered in their blood and brains.‭ ‬Come on it'll be fine.‭ ‬It was scary how many zombies the gun shots drew to the‭ ‬neighbourhood it took me hours to get back home.‭

I finished removing the stairs today the only way to the second floor is using the ladder and I can pull that up with me.‭ ‬All the doors and windows are barricaded but I wanted to be sure that I have a backup in case they get in.‭ ‬I also have a bag packed so I can make a run for it if things get bad,‭ ‬I don‭’‬t know if things are getting better but keeping myself busy is helping take my mind off what is happening to the world.‭ ‬I have been trying to keep my mind‭ ‬occupied‭ ‬as well but there is only so much‭ ‬tic-tac toe you can play.‭ ‬The problem with being the only one playing a game is that despite always knowing what the next move will be you still end up‭ ‬losing the game.‭ ‬I tried reading but I‭ ‬don‭’‬t think the previous owners were big into books, there is only so much OK magazine you can read.‭ ‬There are hundreds of DVD‭’‬s but they are useless now, I guess I could cut them into ninja stars and throw them at zombies.‭ ‬I still can‭’‬t sleep but I have a secure base and that makes me feel better.‭
