Welcome to Zombieville

As I sit at my jail cell (a.k.a. cubicle) looking out at the minions, I notice a slight difference to them all today. Something is not quite right with them; something about the look of their eyes. Overnight their eyes have become almost lost in puffy flesh swelling up from just below and the once bright white appearance of their conjunctivas now give off a grayish hue and are streaked with red giving them all the look of zombies from science fiction movies. The really cheesy b-movies that can be seen late nights, or rather very early mornings, on Space channel, around the time soft porn is available for viewing on City or the italian station TLN. To complete the picture, their eyes are also glazed over, void of any real feeling as if the past four days have successfully sucked the soul out of them and left them futilely drifting in this cold cruel world.

Or maybe it is just the sign of a Friday before a long weekend. One that is expected to give us one last reminder of summer before the cold, windy days of fall take full control, forcing the masses into hiding.
