I was mentally preparing for the zombie apocalypse all night last night. I went to bed at my usual bed time- my alarm set for 5:30AM. There was nothing out of the ordinary, except that season premiere of AMC's The Walking Dead was on TV last night.
What is it about zombies that keeps me from sleeping? I have much more real problems to worry about like writing blog posts, raising three kids and the government shut down, so why do zombies keep me up at night?? Does watching my favorite TV characters slaughtering zombies trigger a primal survival instinct that pushes my brain into overdrive all night?
