Disco Zombie Hops the Pond to London

Last week, I was overjoyed to visit London, the greatest city on Earth. How do I know it’s the greatest city on Earth? Two things: 1. Everything costs double there what it does at home, so it must be twice as good. (That is how that works, right? Otherwise I want to cry at how much I paid for a couple of pieces of sushi one evening.) 2. I saw the Beatles.

And as usual, I had a stowaway in my luggage, so now I present to you London, from the Zombie point of view.

Zombie was intrigued by the possibilities, as phone booths don't exist in the US, and they look like they'd make excellent traps. Unfortunately, even an undead nose could tell how bad this little enclosure smelled, which made it unlikely anyone with active olfactory connections in their brainz would come along.

Zombie also pondered the potential of the turnabout... but this kind of traffic arrangement only stuns and disorients Americans. The locals get around just fine.

With a sign conveniently instructing people to run this way, Zombie thought his luck had turned. But eventually he noticed he was in violation of the other half of the sign and moved along.

Zombie graciously volunteers to eat brainz of West End sign makers, as they are clearly not in use.

And finally, Disco Zombie would just like to share with you a wall of bas-relief horses, for no other reason than that he finds them remarkably groovy.

You may have noticed that no one on the BlogRide team can take a trip for business or pleasure without finding a stowaway in their bags. I just returned from my favorite place in the world, the beautiful state of New Mexico, and this little guy was with me the whole way.

Zombie has never been more comfortable in the presence of plants. Stuffing them with cheese, deep-frying them, and submerging them in sauce renders them immobile, helpless and oh-so-delicious.*

The vasty vista makes even Disco Zombie contemplative. The desert is beautiful... and has far fewer plants than Seattle.

Zombie wanted desperately to get up to that bus that's stuck in the wall — it's just Zombie's size and would make a way cool tour bus for disco revival. Sadly, out of reach.**

Zombie has never seen a human as creepy as the one in this picture. Zombie is very very okay with that. Some brainz not worth eating.

This ladder leads up to a little walkway all around the house just below ceiling level, for the cat's enjoyment and exercise. Zombie thought it was cool to get way above and enjoy the brainz-eye view of the household.***

* This is the chile relleno platter at Bea’s 2 in Albuquerque. If I were super-rich, I would fly down to NM regularly just to eat at this restaurant. The food is so good, I wouldn’t even feel guilty about my carbon footprint. It’s at Wyoming and Zuni, just off Route 66. Go.

** This rad mural wall is at the comic book store Astro-Zombies, on Central in Albuquerque. The wall is so much cooler when you can see all of it… I briefly envied those with that new phone that does panoramic pictures.

*** Yes, my mom’s house is that cool. A cat walkway.
