Day one,

Have to make this quick, I really can't spare much time for these sort of things anymore. Where to begin to tell the story...there's so much I need to get off my chest. First off let me congratulate you on finding this entry sort of thing or whatever you want to call it. In fact I really don't know what to call it myself, a diary seems to girly, but notes seems to formal. I don't know, I'll have to think of something later. Took me ages to find a pen and paper to write everything down on, this whole situation has been going on for weeks now. Oh and just a heads up, if you did find this then I'm probably not far away either alive or...well you get the idea. Just between me and you, if you do happen to find me...turned then I give you the full right to make sure I'm put out of my misery. Not that roaming the world until I can't walk anymore, eating those too slow to run from me doesn't give me a thrill but I want to at least know there is some sort of end waiting for me. Maybe then I'll be able to see those that left me behind.
Anyways, I thought that maybe writing it all down would help me keep track of things. I would much rather lose myself writing then on the road wondering about in a town I had been in three times already. I have short legs, and limited food so an extensive road trip is not in order yet. I should make a log of town names...that's an idea it would give me something to do I guess besides this. Right though, don't want to bore you now do I? Right now I don't really have any plans on moving, this old school bus is doing get as a place to sleep at night for the time being. The seats are okay enough to sleep on could do with a bit more in the terms of padding but it's better than just sleeping on the dirt. Can't believe I would ever WANT to get back on a bus like this one, but here I am living in one. Atleast the dead can't get in, that's all I'm greatful for right now. I can sleep in peace knowing that when I wake I won't be getting chewed on by a zombie. To think that I could be home right now with mom and dad watching T.V, or doing homework. What I would give for it all to be back to normal.... I miss them. Enough on that though, need to save batteries in the light, haven't been able to find any of them yet. They don't grow on trees you know, that would be my saving grace if they did. I need to end this stupid rambling, it's been going on for a while now. I'll try to update everyday, or as stuff happens. That leaves me with how to end this. I need a motto, something to end with to show I'm not some radioactive clone or a android monster. How about....Stay living.

This is really good so far. I hate to interrupt, but will this continue? Or have you been eaten by zombies already?

Day ten,

Sorry for the late reply, I haven't been able to keep up with writing and surviving and all that. It's been a while...nine days. Where to start! Well I did manage to locate more batteries so go me I guess! Food is still a bit of an issue though I can manage, may mean eating a can of dog food but I'll manage. Speaking of dog! I saw one today! It was watching me from an alley while I was raiding a car. Looked to be like part golden retriever or something, maybe mixed with a yellow lab but who know. All I know is I wanted to pet it, after all I've been alone for nearly two months now! But it ran once I got close...had something around its neck as well. Poor thing must have gotten loose from its chain or something. Other than that- wait a minute...something's scratching at the door. Not sure why I'm still writing, but be right back.

So turns out it was the dog...it's sitting next to me now. Poor thing was starving, so I sacrificed my only can of dog god for it. Strange thing is though it looks like it has a note around its collar. I'm going to check once it gets done eating, I would rather not end up getting bitten.

It was a note...not sure if it's still in the book or not so I'll quote it.
"To whoever sees this, my name is Waylon Foster and this dog is Xavier, but he answers to X. Listen...I'm in a bit of a situation. I'm not sure who's reading this but please... My location is -. Please hurry, I'm not sure how much longer I can hold out."
What you thought I would actually give his (or her) location? Think again, that loot is mine! You know if he's dead. Judging by the blood stains I would say they were pretty dead. Who knows though. Guess I have my quest for tomorrow figured out! I'll keep you updated! And please...Stay living.

Day 11,

I kind of wish I had known what I was getting myself into with the whole following the note thing. So I got early right and started to follow the directions from the main road. Took half a day to find the ran down shack. And what do I find in there? For one no loot, second a half dead man that looks like he's been cut up in a meat grinder. Least he had the decency to hide on the second floor. I have no clue where to start on fixing up these bad of wounds... X seemed happy enough to see the man even if he was so far out of his mind he could hardly speak. Drank two bottles of water, no telling how long the poor man has been here.

I didn't even know where to start on describing his wounds. He looks like he's been beaten to say the least. Most of his face is cut up, the wounds are scabbed over at least. His clothes are torn to shreds, bites covering his arms and cuts of his chest. I would worry about the bites but they aren't human, they look to be made by some sort of large animal. His legs are cut as wel though not nearly as bad. He's going to need medicine...just makes my job that much harder. And looks like I have a new place to stay, seems safe enough. Tomorrow I'll make a trip to town for meds, hopefully I'll find some food as well. Had to give X my beans and the man the last can of peaches. Both of them are starving. Note to self, find some dog treats. I've got a heck of a day ahead of me...better get off to sleep. See ya, and Stay living.

Day 17,

Sorry for not writing for a few days, its been a time. To start it off I have been fighting to keep Dead Head alive. He's slowly coming around though, getting better each day in fact. Proper care and feeding seems to be keeping him well enough. It's the fever that worries me, he was burning up for the last five days, until this morning when it broke. He's sleeping now. I'm just glad he had food here, or at least someone did. X was happy to see the rations, this dog can eat so much! Feed him one can and he can pack it away like nothing! Need to find a way to catch him a bird or some rabbits or something more filling then beans. Guess that will be tomorrows chore other than gathering more water. Maybe by then I'll have someone to talk to other than X.

I never knew just how lonely you can be in this sort of situation until now. I mean I'm writing these letters in a kitten notebook in a hope to get somethings off my chest. Not that I want them to be found, that would mean I wasn't around anymore and honestly I have no wish to die. But I have to have someone to talk to other than just myself, that just makes you look crazy if you can pull a full conversation out of your head and be alright with it. I wonder if this counts as the same thing...probably not seeing that someone will read these someday even if it isn't today. Still though I need to keep my head in the game, you get depressed and you get dead. You can't let anything cloud your judgement or you end up dead. It just gets too much at times though...have to get it out somehow and this is the only way available. Enough on that though, don't want to get you down with my own feelings. Maybe Dead Head will wake up so I can't finally get his name and backstory. I might have wasted a piece of paper with a bunch of guesses to who he is. My bet is on the government agent mauled by a radioactive bear! But only time will tell if he turns into Bear Man...and now that I said that I instantly regret it.... So just stay living....

Day 25,

Finally! A moment to myself! You won't believe what happened in the last week! For one Dead Head woke up. The first day he really didn't say much, just kinda looked around got this weird smile on his face when he saw me and passed out again. It was another two days after that when he woke up again. He was really too weak to hold out much of a conversation, poor guy was starved to the point he could hardly hold his head up. Even with me feeding him some of the thinner soups and the juice of of some of the fruit he was still weak. Drank almost a gallon of water too. It's a wonder he made it this long, there's no telling where he would be otherwise. The next four days were pretty much like that, him waking to eat before passing out again. Today though he actually stayed awake for a bit afterwards! Turns out his name is Waylon, ao X is his dog. I-i kinda hate to say this but now that's he's awake...I think I might have a bit of a crush. He's cute okay! I'm sure if you were here you would think the same thing! Just don't tell him alright? That would be weird.

Maybe tomorrow we can start him off on trying to get up out of bed, then he could help collect food and stuff! Just the thought of having a helping hand around the town. I can't wait! We're going to make the best team ever. But don't worry even if you don't have us with you I'm sure you can find a way to just stay living....

Day 26,

Urg...I know I'm supposed to be a good care taker and all but it's kinda hard to do that when you can't even look at the patient without freaking blushing! I mean he's not even doing anything more than sitting there with X! You should have seen it when I had to help he get up to use the bathroom, I was as red as a tomato! It's so embarrassing! I shouldn't feel this way about a man I just met, yet here I am drooling over him every chance I get. Next I'll be writing diary entries about him...oh wait...not like this darn it!

Anyways, we really didn't get much done today. Good news is Waylon is starting to feel better, he even wanted to get up for a bit today even if I did have to help him. More days like this and we might even be able to move again, but who knows. I need a chance in scenery. Keeping it short and sweet today, I have to try to keep him from seeing this. That would be even more embarrassing if he saw...well just stay living okay?
