School Days!

03Sep07

school starts tomorrow! normally, i wouldn’t be so excited, but the other week i hinted that i’d have some super-big way-secret news coming up, and here it is: matthew’s going to be going to school with me this year. that’s right, the school board is letting matthew be the test case for mobile deceased in the classroom. honestly, i was shocked that they even considered it. when they said yes, i was AMAZED. there are definitely going to be some pretty strict rules and restrictions for him, but he’ll be in the class! obviously, he’s got to have his muzzle and shackles on at all times, and we had to provide a trained assistant to accompany him at all times, like an interpreter for a hearing impaired student, so it’s not that different. if, you know, we made deaf kids wear chains and muzzles. :( he seems pretty excited about it too. he’s a lot more restless than usual, and he keeps trying to talk. speaking of talking, i think that i’m making progress in understanding his groans. that’s one of the projects that i’ll be pushing through with the dla this year, trying to get some sort of lexicon put together. oh my gosh!! the dla will actually have a dead student in it this year! i hadn’t even thought about that. before now, matthew and other deceased “members” would come to events, but since zoms aren’t (weren’t!) allowed on public school grounds, matthew couldn’t come to meetings, or any of our at-school events.

i figure that there’s going to be some people who will have a hard time with this, but f*@& them, you know? my parents pay taxes, and matthew deserves an education just as much as anyone else does. i’ll make sure to make a post tomorrow after school to let everyone know how it went.

in other news, have you guys seen the previews for the Discovery channel’s new show this season, the Zombie Hunter? it’s absolutely horrible! i couldn’t believe that the discovery channel would do something like this, they’re usually such a great channel. for those of you who haven’t heard about it, it’s like this bounty hunter kind of guy, but he goes around hunting down mobile-deceased who have attacked people, or escaped from farms, things like that, and he kills them! on tv! first off, it’s bad enough that zoms can be killed like that. it’s like pitbulls; the reason they attack people is because of the way they’re treated by the living, but they’re still the ones who have to pay. then, to add insult to injury, they put this on tv for people to watch? this is ENTERTAINMENT? what is wrong with people today!? i already sent them a letter telling them how terrible i thought this show was, and i’m definitely going to try and put together a boycott. so remember, don’t watch the zombie hunter, and if you’re as upset by this as i am, go ahead and write in and tell them. we’ve done it before, people; we got FOX to pull “when zombies attack,” we can get this one killed too. it’s great the networks are starting to pay attention to the deceased demographic, but this isn’t the image of zombies that we want out there.

by the way, that guy i posted a link to last week, the lake of fire necrophobe, he made another pretty creepy post talking about me and what i said about him, which kind of scared me at first. but, i mean, he’s all the way out in pennsylvania, or somewhere, and besides he didn’t put up a new “sermon” yesterday, so who knows, maybe he stopped. but, seriously, people should look at that last one of his, about me. CREEPY. although, at the same time kind of neat, that some random guy halfway across the country was motivated enough by something i wrote to get so worked up. the internet’s pretty nifty!

sorry this post was so late, but there was a lot of stuff to deal with to get matthew into school, and i wanted to be able to tell everybody that it was happening. i’ll be back tomorrow to fill you in on the first day!
