Writer's Block: Be Prepared

Easy answer: no.

My experience has been that the unexpected happens. Whatever you prepare for is much less likely to come to pass than the wildly surprising events that you would never have imagined. Aside from the basic health and safety rules that are a matter of common sense, any attempt at disaster control is pointlessly stressful. Make yourself the best person you can, and let the future happen. Face the world with confidence and love, not fear and greed.

Today has enough troubles without worry about possibilities. Relax and gather some field lilies. You'll be better for it in the end.

That being said... how does a person prepare for zombies?

Keeping money on hand: that's a very good idea. I hadn't thought of that. I've come to just casually take the ATMs for granted.

I had too. Still do to some degree since it hasn't happened since (and never may again, for all I know) but in that moment, I realized how lost we all were w/o the actual physical paper.

Weird.

It's so easy to be dependent on technology, even unconsciously. A reminder that a credit card that can't be swiped isn't worth the plastic it's made of.
