Road Report: Omaha

I'm sorry it has taken me so long to post; but thank you to all the zombies who have been posting your memes. I asked Phoebe if she would post this for me when I was on the road, but she said that it was one I really ought to do myself.

I met a girl in Omaha. Her name is Christie Smith and she's a zombie.

I met her at a small gathering of zombies and we really connected. I'd really like to write more about her and how we met--I tried to get her to do Phoebe's zombie meme--but she's really, really shy.

But Christie and a few of the other zombies I met are going to be joining me on the rest of my travels. Right now there are six of us. I'm no longer hoofing it or catching Greyhound, either--the mom of one of the dead kids is driving us around in--get this--a white van.

Although, the van is so old it is really more of an off-white van. But I thought you'd think it was funny, anyhow.

Hey Tommy! It's so good of you to be posting things again! I think I know why Pheobe wanted you to post that though. I love the van thing! =) Stay safe please!

Be careful. I have run into a lot of psychos lurking. I ripped this off some guy's jacket. http://scootmoto.com/images/P/SPAZ09patchL.jpg
I saw this on the road the other day... Scary. http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2586/4062288198_31464ac276.jpg

I am so happy that you have found other difrently biotic people to travle with, I think that you will be safer with others and not
alone. And you where right, I think it is very funny that you are traveling in a white van. I am also very pleased to hear from you again and I think that it was a great idea to get the difirently biotic to post a zombie meme. I hope you stay safe along with all of your new friends.

Good luck Tommy!
Be careful.

Hi Tommy! Do you want to be best friends with us?! We really love you!
P.S. Pete Sucks!
P.P.S. You rule!

LunaTehNox said...

I'd say be careful, but I figured you'd already know. How ironic that it's a white van. I hve a friend in Omaha. Boyfriend, actually. Real sweet. He's not differently biotic, but he's a really good person, and I hope you meet up. That'd be quite an experience for him. :D

LunaTehNox said...

By the way, I've sort of assumed this. Correct me if I'm wrong. You met Daniel Waters, and got him to tell your story? Where did you meet him?

It's good to hear from you again Tommy. All of us, trads and zombies alike, are glad that you're safe and have people to travel with. There's safety in numbers. As for the white van thing, the Universe has a really sarcastic sense of humor, doesn't it? Keep up the good work and stay safe.

This has renewed my faith in the white vans!! I knew they were secretly good!! I bet there's a whole secret organization of white vans that save differently biotic children (....maybe from other white vans that are not so good).

I hope you'll be safer now you're not travelling alone. Good on you!
And travelling in a white van? I only hope it doesn't scare anyone into hiding.

Heather Mace said...

So do you think that some of the white vans you have heard about might be zombies and not zombie killers.

natalie said...

well well well, met a new girl eh? congrats, my man! oh, and maybe think about painting the van...? dont want us paranoid zombies getting confused and throwing rocks at you now do we?
safe travels!

Angel Of Death said...

Remember Tommy, things are out there... Be careful. Afterall if this strange phenomena happened in making you alive again, there are bond to be other things out there that aren't suppose to be.

Dawns.

They are known as the Devils Pawns. Mostly they look forward to killing for fun. Be careful not to run into them.(No pressure or anything)

Anywho, be careful with your problem also. (Nothing like a little advice from a Fallen...)

I just checked out your blog, and was astonished to see the first post was about Omaha! (seeing as I live in Omaha and all.)

Good to hear you travels are going well.

The best of luck to you on your journey!

Morgan said...

aw. thats so sweet. i wish you guys luck on your travels

Lauren R. said...

I think that's so awesome. I have some info on white vans though, I was literally just outside and saw a white van driving slowly through my street. Please let me know if you will be anywhere near Maryland because I would be happy to help.

Jamie said...

yay! im so happy for you and glad to see you found someone else out there for you! good luck you 2!
;)

tiamat100 said...

Nice to hear about Christie! Maybe you could try and encourage her to post something at some point, or one of the other people you're travelling with?
The white van thing is pretty ironic, I guess, but I hope it doesn't make other zombies paranoid. Oh well, at least the evil white van people will be less likely to target you. Maybe. Is that too optimistic?
Anyway, good luck, and Best wishes on your travels.

Samee said...

tommy you are a selfish jerk.
you could have saved phee but you cared too much about your self and now adams dead because he cared more about her than you. your already dead so why did adam have to die?

YO! I think your gonna love everywere you go. I have one question that you might not feel comfortable answering. If your dead the law doesn't apply. So, you would be able to gamble and drink beer and stuff if you went to las vegas, Right?

^^ that was straight out of left field...while i agree to some of that logic it was clear pheebs and tommy both were unsure about their own and eachothers feelings at the time. he obviously regrets it so maybe give the guy a break, eh?

ps. yes gen. dead IS just a book (believe me, i am well aware) but that doesnt make this blog any less fun or informative (its like an extention to the book).

have fun on the road and keep writing those blogs

LunaTehNox said...

(of course it's just a book. but we like to pretend. so shhh. keep the secret.) No WAY! This is NOT a book!!! This is totally, 100% real! Nonfiction! Reality! Truth!

Hello! There is no such thing as zombies! This is a book! It is not real! It is called a fictional book for a reason!

YOU ARE AN AWFUL AWFUL PERSON FOR FINDING "Christie Smith" or whatever her name is...and we know they're not real but it's fun to pretend to talk to the characters! don't ruin our fun!

puka-moochi:) said...

dude you totally ripped this off the book. lame. so when adam died did phoebe like become his girlfriend???????

EvilGu said...

lol. I think the funniest thing on this page is the same guy informing us, in his infinite wisdom born of common sense, that this is in fact, "just a book."
(yeah, way to RP kill loser)
lol.
Probably a kid, though, so it's cute.

LunaTehNox said...

Actually, it's multiple people, all anonymous. New posts better pop up soon, Tommy, cuz we're getting worried.

natalie said...

Okay, nice Tommy. And Phebe is right that you needed to post it yourself, sorry, but she is completely right. And make sure you trust the people, I know that they seem nice and all, I'm just worried. But then again, I worry too much. Stay safe, and one more thing, a white van really? Its funny, yeah. Stay safe.

Love,
