Happy Thanksgiving

Here in the White North we have a little holiday today. Now I'm stuck with my cone head dog after his neutering and my fiancé playing games but I hope the rest have enjoyed a weekend full of laughs, family, and turkey.

Monday Mention: Afterlife With Archie #8: A Ghost Story

Afterlife With Archie #8: A Ghost Story (Afterlife With Archie #8) 
by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa (Writer), Francesco Francavilla (Artist)

The spirit of Xmas can't be ruined with zombies! Spirits of the dead have come to say hello as the gang takes refuge in an abandoned hotel. Archie rehashes his journey so far with his old pal Jughead, who we  are sad we didn't get to know much about before his fatal run in with a dog ironically named after a food Jughead loves to eat. 

Just one night of "magic" lets this gang see their loved ones again. But with this loving time we learn evil is still roaming and has been for many years in Riverdale. Years ago a deal with witches was struck, sacrifices were to be made. Could this be why zombies have emerged? People should know magic always comes with a price. DUH!

I thought a great background story worked well in letting us tie in Sabrina and Archie and getting to know zombies aren't something new. It did seem kind of random for zombies to start happening so this Archie explains that. I kind of had a GASP moment too. It all makes sense now. I really enjoyed seeing some Jughead. We didn't get to know his character pre-zombie apocalypse.

Monday Mentions: Afterlife With Archie #7: Thanksgiving

Archie and the gang have been away from Riversdale for awhile, stumbling across America and zombies. The gang decides to rest and give thanks and hunt for some turkey-like food. Soon they aren't the only ones hunting. 

So Betty is being a teen and writing her emotions on paper. We dive into her life with sis Polly, the death and loss from Jugdead's reign, and her secret time with Archie. oooooo Veronica not going to be happy about that.  And she isn't. 

Princess veronica is being all jelly. Meanwhile, folks are dreaming of Sabrina's honeymoon I think. Weird. Did she marry Cthulhu?! On top of it all, the Blossom siblings got a Flowers in the Attic relationship minus Cheryl liking it. Gamgam will for sure be punishing these too.

Boxing Day Learning

Z is for Zombie.

Hope your Boxing Day is zombie free! 

Bored? Hate the holidays? Watch this Zombie Christmas song video below.

Like the card? Get it at Etsy.

Silent Night of the Living Dead!

I am so mature you guys!

Everybody loves to have a nativity set out during the holidays. We even had one in my house and we weren't exactly Jesus fans. Nevertheless they spew Christmas and they are quite fun to mess around with.--->

Being a zombie fan the best nativity set would be a zombie one and it looks like a Kickstarter tried to make our dreams come true this holiday. (It failed! CHRISTMAS IS RUINED!!) Still let us take a moment to relish in the awesomeness that could have been.

The gang is all here...well maybe missing a few parts.

We Three Spleens

Shepard boy is doing some major suckage at his job.

Could Mary be the next Daryl?? NEVER!!

New Year Resolution

Top 5 Posts of 2013

This year Zombie Diaries has had more views than ever before. Since 2009 the blog has changed a lot from its content to the look to even the viewers. One thing that we can all agree on that has not changed is we love our zombies! 
So what did we love the most in 2013? It seems cats, cartoons and animated shows, good ol' Saskatchewan (YAY), and naked super hero ladies. So a 30 something-year-old crazy cat Saskatchewan lesbian who enjoys cartoons seems to be my viewers. Love it!

Let's give those top 5 posts now!

 #1 Zombie Cat: The Tale of a Decomposing Kitty

Isabel Atherton wrote a book about a rotting, horny cat who tries to find its way back home. Funny and gruesome. Great read!

#2 Zombie cartoon foods

DeviantArt member Cronobreaker 

drew zombie food. Seems you all like rotten food.  

#3 Saskatchewan's first Zombie Prep Camp

and it makes the news

In May, a camp near Regina, Saskatchewan, became a success as it taught people how to survive the wilderness and fight off zombies. Look forward to seeing what success they have in 2014.

#4 Zombie Wonder Woman

She's naked! She's dead! She's the Wonder Woman of all your dreams.
There's some paint on your nip nip WW. Bet get that cleaned off.

#5Adventure Time Princess Zombie

SHMEOW-ZEOW! Undead Marceline created by ToxicZ0mbi3, a Deviant Art fan artist, made the cut of our list for its cuteness and algebraic drawing skills. 

Hope you enjoyed loving the undead with Zombie Diaries in 2013, and may we enjoy this disgusting passion together in 2014!

A VERY ZOMBIE HOLIDAY
