Day 9

We've finally come to a place where zombie's seem to be everywhere.

My guide hasn't stopped moving quite yet, but he certainly seems to be interacting with other zombies more frequently. Obviously this has made my job of following him while not gaining the attention of flesh eating creatures a bit more difficult, but it has made it easier to get some sleep.

Just last night he actually stopped at a house full of zombies and apparently stayed the night. I can't guarantee that there was sleeping going on as I was hiding out on a nearby hill, but he did disappear into the house and not return until day light. It's the first time that he, or I for that matter, has stopped moving for a substantial period of time. I will admit because for most of the night I was worried I'd lost him and at this point I've kind of grown fond of him in a very strange way. But to my surprise he appeared early the next day and off we were again traveling through back woods and small towns.

I couldn't tell you where but I do believe he is certainly headed some place specific, or maybe I'm just so desperate to attach a personality to an aimless creature looking only for something to eat…. But I just don't think that is the case. There may not be a lot going on behind those blank eyes, but there is something. Or at least I hope at this point.
