Ladies and gentlemen, we have stubble! (After just a week of me yelling at the more assertive ones that I'm gonna turn them into that damned fabric softener bear if they don't get the hell back into the closet.) At this rate, by Christmas we should have zombies with comb-overs.
Well, okay. If this doesn't work out, I have formulated a Plan B: persuade the voice in my head which sounds exactly like Rod Serling to tell me when something isn't there.
What, no? You guys are all still grappling with Stage Two: Zombies, But It's Not Personal, and I've moved on to Stage Four: Ask The Imaginary Friends What's Real. All I can say is, the crazy moves fast in here. Keep your lifejackets on at all times.
Edited to ask: Would you guys like me to try to set up an RSS feed so you can know I Got Nothin' without the hassle of clicking over here?

It's already on. I just subscribed today. I've always liked your comments over at TBogg's and didn't know you'd set up your own shop.
Good luck with the hair growth.
You must have a feed, because five people on Bloglines are subscribed to it.
I subscribed through Bloglines..it's working.
Wow, okay. I completely missed that tab. Would you guys like me to toy with it so it gives you only a short bit, just so you know there's something new? I tend to go on and on and on, which might be annoying since it's giving you the whole thing.
Plus I frequently spot font problems or typos or whatever within two minutes of publishing, and re-edit and re-publish. Does it show up twice? Because that's probably even more annoying.
Nah, leave it full-length so I don't hafta click through. I'd hate to miss anything out of laziness or distractedness.
Agreed on the full-length. What I've found is that most RSS readers (I use Google's) don't automatically grab, so a quick post-publishing edit will send out the edited version rather than the first version.
For some reason this morning, the zombies are making me think of a book. Have you ever read anything by Terry Pratchett? Fantasy with satire, he's excellent. He's a British author, frequently on the bestseller list, and hilarous, IMO. But I'm about to describe part of a book while doing it absolutely no justice, so bear with me.
The books are in a fantasy setting, with the usual fantasy races. There are some more interesting ones mentioned as well, usually more as side notes, and this was one of them. One of the members of the Watch (i.e. police force) had to go into a bar who's patrons were mostly undead (incidentally, she kind of is one as well). When a bogeyman (they don't figure prominently in the books, but they show up now and then, it's quite amusingly done) got too aggressive, she whipped out a piece of fuzzy blue cloth and put it over his head. The explanation was this: Everyone knows that if the bogeyman is bothering you, you put your head under your blanket and he goes away. So if you put HIS head under the blanket.... Boom, existential uncertainty.
I'd recommend you try it, but those who live with you might look at you oddly when you start shouting "Take that!" and throwing blankets randomly around the kitchen. So I think I'll just sit back and watch the hair growth progress. Shame they don't make hallucinatory Rogaine.
Also, the RSS is a good idea, but I'll probably still just click over. :)
I am indeed a Terry Pratchett fan, actually. My zombies are not such good conversationalists as Reg Shoe, sadly. And lately I'm poking at them with a wooden spoon. If it passes right through them, I don't worry about them. Rod has been a tremendous disappointment, in terms of minute-by-minute reality narration.
Ah, so I can feel free to make obscure references. Cool. :)
