The Day Continues
Jun. 13th, 2007 10:22 pmIt's just a few hours until midnight and my mom finally made it home. I was so happy that I started to cry.
I've never been so worried in my life. I was scared I would never see her again.
We had to pull her up by a bedsheat rope from the master bedroom window because all the windows doors downstairs are sealed up so tightely, I can't even get to them. We took apart the desk in John's room and a few book shelves to board them up.
Mom wrecked her car about four blocks from here. She said that there were so many cars piled up from all the people trying to leave town, and everyone was running about, screaming and crying that it was near impossible to tell what was going on. Not to mention screams from people being ripped to shreads by... zombies.
I can't belive I am actually writing that word.
Sister and I also made contact with our neighbours. They were supposed to be having a huge house party this weekend, so they have all kinds of food. They said they would be willing to share with us if we need it. And we've agreed to take turns watching the areas around the house. We don't really have a signal or anything - just to throw things at the window and scream if we see anything.
The electricty keeps flickering on and off now. And the raido has gone silent.
I'm surprised I can still log on, but I'm sure it's only a matter of time until we lose power again. And one of these times... it's not going to come back on.
At least the tornado sirens have stopped.
The only sounds we can hear now are the distant screams and the occasional car alarm. Its why we've been keeping the windows closed, even though it's stuffy in here. I just don't want to hear those noises.
None of the phones seem to work either. The land line has been dead almost all day, and even though I've got a signal on my cellphone, nothing goes through.
I just wish I knew that everyone else was safe. But I don't know... and that scares me.
