Dont look back!
Whoo hoo! Is everybody else as exited as I am for the midseason premiere of the of the Walking Dead? I'm so exited for it I might not even sleep tonight! Finally my Sundays will be full of gore and excitement once again. Does anybody make it a sunday family tradition to get together and indulge?. The hubby and I don't pay for cable TV as we rather spend our time doing something a bit more productive then watching reality shows or whatever else cable television forces you to watch with all the adds. Wish we could just pay to watch AMC obviously just for The Walking Dead! Anyhow our usual Sunday consist's of going to a bar in down town Austin and watching the show along with other Walking Dead fanatics! My favorite place to watch it use to be the Alamo Draft house before they started charging money and then had to cancel it. What else could of been more perfect then enjoying my fav show on a big screen TV where they had beer, food and a dark room full of zombie lovers. There was even a zombie walk off or other type of related contest right before the show to get everybody pumped up! As if it was necessary! Ha well it always amazed me! This has been one of my favorite shows of all time. Its even made me realize how in to survival I am. I love thinking of what I would do in similar situations and ways to survive.
I had never been to a comic con but went to my very first one last October in Austin. I hope I get to attend the one in California one day and meet all the cast.Unfortunately I didn't get to meet any of the walking dead cast that time but I did get a glimpse of Norman Reedus! It was so hard being so close to him and yet so far away! I also got to see Michael Rooker (Merle Dixon) he was actually close enough to me that I even got to take a photo of him with another fan he was just as loud and vivid as he is in the show. Along with them there was Laurie Holden (Andrea), Sarah Wayne Callies (Lori Grimes), and Chandler Riggs (Carl Grimes) who surprisingly (or not) had more people lined up for autographs then Laurie Holden and Sarah Wayne. Although as expected Norman's line was up to 100 percent capacity the entire time. I had a great time attending I have to say my favorite part of the experience was taking pictures with other fellow Walking Dead fans. As I went as Michonne I put lots of effort in to my costume. I think I will share some photos just for fun. My hubby went as Daryl. I was pretty recognizable even though I am really pale. I had lots of people chasing me down calling me by "Michonne" to take a picture with me. It was so rewarding to see so many people recognize the character and loving my costume. There was no other Michonne's that day not that I came across any way but would of loved to see some or better yet the real Danai Guirira would of been fantastic.
Well I dont know about most of you but I know where I will be at tomorrow night! Most likely will be wearing my Zombie bait shirt to the bar to watch "The Walking Dead". Until then, farewell my zombie lovers!
