Ever do that thing where you start watching a horror movie by yourself during the day and you’re like, “Wow, this isn’t even scary,” and by the time you finish it, it’s nighttime and suddenly every creak you hear and shadow you see is obviously some monster that is going to make you its meal?
Okay, well, with me it’s a book (well, The Walking Dead graphic novels to be specific), and I’ve been powering through them (and also a few pots of black tea to keep me going) all day. Suddenly it’s 11 pm and the caffeine from the black tea has me jumping at everything (I scared the crap out of my cat, poor thing). I need a nice, tasty herbal to calm my nerves so here I sit with a nice cup of this tea. It’s fruity and reminds me of summer and definitely helps me keep my mind off of flesh-eating zombies. (Seriously, who knew that things that move .0008 miles per hour and probably can’t even master a set of stairs could be so freaky?)

For me, the Walking Dead comics were more OMG, gimme the kleenex, than they were scary. Glad you’re enjoying them. :)
hey i plan to read those soon!!!
(cuz i’m tired of everyone telling me i’d like the show. and then i tell them i tried the show and didn’t like it. and they look disappointed. but if i read the graphic novels then i’ll have an excuse to disappoint them instead of it just being me inadvertently implying that they have bad taste.)
but ‘read those soon’ is maybe an exaggeration because first i have to finish the ENTIRE green arrow catalog. and though i’ve gotten pretty far, that’s still a lot.
but i do have all the books ready and waiting in the wings.
