I used to be abjectly, profoundly terrified of zombies. Don't ask me why. I've never encountered a more inept foe. Their only strengths are relentlessness and numbers. Anyone with smarts and two hours to prepare can make a decent barricade. A quick read of The Zombie Survival Guide will teach you a very great deal about how to deal.

Yet I was terrified. I mean, quite literally, it was an obsessive fear - I would lie awake at night worrying about the possibilities of zombie uprisings.

Now, however, this has passed. Whilst I am still somewhat wary I am not gripped by any fear regarding the matter. Rather I feel a little apprehensive and am ready to act on the situation. This pleases me because actually, zombies are incredibly cool. They're like the best horror movie enemy ever. Now that I don't fear zombies, I really quite like them.
