Jason & Katrina 2, Zombies 0!

 If you know me, you know I fricking HATE zombies. In total honesty the thoughts of a zombie apocalypse can keep me up at nights. It is in my top worst fears, right along side demon possession, the end of the world, some super bug or germ warfare crap, to name a few...you know, all the biggies :) A local airsoft arena put on a haunted house/zombie hunt...and even though one with a pretty bad fear of zombies would usually skip such an event, the whole actually getting to shoot them made it all good.
 We went with Scott and Amber, the kiddos were all home with Grandma...safely away from any icky zombies. Each person got a helmet/mask, a pump action "shotgun" and 10 airsoft "bullets," oh and a yellow "flag" that if the zombies got them off you, well, you were dead. The arena was huge, think warehouse, then they had zig zagging "halls" everywhere built with plywood. It was foggy, dark and in some area's they had strobes going off. They had a number of fake zombies and other props to help throw you off, and the real zombies came at you from every direction.
 We went through the course twice, the first time it was just the four of us, Jason and I took point while Scott and Amber covered the rear. It was pretty funny, we ran it just like our "training" taught us...all those hours playing Socom paid off LOL. I had to take down a couple Zombies that tried to get me and Jason had a couple super close calls but we both made it. Scott and Amber got taken out, but they went down blasting away :)  The second time all four of us made it out alive! Go us!


After some zombie killing Jason and I went out to a club for a friends Bday. It has been what 4 or 5 years since we were out all night dancing at a club. It was really fun night, but dang how did we used to do this 2 or 3 nights a week and still get up for work LOL!
