A day in the life of Zombie Outbreak

You may have noticed that this post isn’t being written by Thursday Hulse. You see, we’ve kind of lost her. Well, we were all hanging around Zombie Outbreak HQ the other day when she suddenly jumped out of her chaise longue, began to glow and yelled ‘MY PLANET NEEDS ME! I MUST GO!’ Then she rocketed upwards into the stratosphere, leaving us all gobsmacked and with a whacking great repair bill for the roof.



Cheers, Hulse.

So, while she saves her home planet for certain doom, I’ve promised to fill in for her. This week, I thought you’d all like a peek into a day in the life of the Zombie Outbreak HQ itself. Prepare to be insanely jealous.

7:00am: Alarm goes off. Alarm is slapped until it shuts up.

12:00pm: We eventually get up and get ready to go out. At least one person (I would guess Saturday Simon. It strikes me that he likes caffeine) curses the fact they have run out of caffeinated beverages.

12:30pm: We rock up to HQ and open up shop.



This is what it looks like. Try not to be jealous.

12:31pm: Our work experience boy/slave Pedro runs over with a fine selection of tasty drinks and American sweets. Friday Voni attempts to gorge herself stupid on Pop Tarts. Most days, it works.

1:00pm: Customary lightsaber battle.



1:12pm: Lightsaber battle is stopped by Wednesday Luke (as God help us, he’s the sensible one of the gang) because someone’s broken a ceiling light.

1:14pm: Lunch? Lunch.

1:30pm: Pedro returns with a delicious array of noms. We consider telling him that he doesn’t have to do work experience anymore because he’s 23. Decide against it, as getting our own lunch requires effort.

2:00pm: INTERNET TIME!

2:13pm: Monday Rich has sent a bizarre music video round on Twitter.

2:15pm: Sunday Matt counters with his own bizarre music video.

2:30pm: A cat video is sent, probably either by Tuesday Shanice or Friday Voni. Everyone agrees that they are indeed very cute. And funny.



3:00pm: Thursday Hulse lies on her chaise longue and demands that Pedro feeds her grapes. She says he’ll get a good reference if he does this. She lies.

3:15pm: Movie time! The whole gang gathers round for a super film. Or at least one they can roundly abuse.

4:45pm: Film finishes, everyone digs popcorn out from their clothes. How does it get there?!

4:46pm: It is realised that the job would be easier if we put the lights back on.

4:47pm: Oh hell, we need to update the site! Who’s turn is it?

5:00pm: Site rapidly updated in order to allow us to go home.

5:01pm: Pedro locked back in his cage, the gang takes off after a hard day’s work.



And there you have it!

I detect some mild fibbing going on in this post.

the cage was a bit big for Pedro
