Head North!

Welcome back to the “Boy I had a weird dream last night” show!

Last night I dreamt that zombies had begun invading the US and I was trying to get out of Madison and North to Canada. “Go North Go North Go North” my brain kept saying. Somehow I had recognized the early warning signs of the invasion and was trying to get out of town before a more widespread panic set in and the roads jammed up. But only Andy would come with me: I kept pleading with my family to go but they didn’t think it was a big deal and planned on staying in the States.

I kept seeing the map in my head, and my brain kept saying “Go North Go North Go North.” I would get to Canada where it was cold enough to freeze out the zombies.

Nobody wanted to leave and I kept looking for some other item I needed for the trip: my marriage license, my passport. Jeans. Sweaters. My grandmother’s ring. The entire time I felt like I needed to get out of there because once the infection hit Chicago, it would increase exponentially.

After waking up, it’s still sticking with me through the day. A bit of a mix of “World War Z” and “Cell” where I’m trying to get to the KASHWAK NO FO zone. Weird!
