Link Comes to Town Monday

I haven't blogged for a bit because I've been a mixture of all the bad feelings you can have, including but not limited to - pissed off, let down, angry, full of rage, anxious, nervous, worried, fearing for my life, depressed, not wanting to wake up, frazzled, stressed out and did I mention full of rage? That's the feeling I have most. I see red, I see red, I see red.
If anyone has any tips on how to manage anger, other than fucking "count to ten", advice would really be appreciated, because the crescent-shaped scabs on my palms from where my fingernails cut in when I clench my fists are getting really itchy, and my jaw just won't unclench.
ANYWAY! In other news, I just cut my hair, I have a face mask on, I did a whole lot of fucking around today for no reason at all, I was supposed to get my tattoo finished but it's not healed enough yet, I am reading this book about parents who killed their baby girl and it gave me nightmares, I don't think I will have enough money to buy any food this week, and I really hope things are gonna turn out alright but if they don't I can always sell my organs for profit.

Now onto the links!
Earlier last week I made some tweets about what to do in the event that Brisbane's torrential rain and flooding would be the beginning of the zombie apocalypse, and they seemed to be a hit, so if you would like to further create your plans for the end of days, I suggest you check out the Zombie Survival & Defense Wiki and you might live longer than most.

I've been listening to podcasts on the train to & from work lately because it blocks out the sound of all those people just talking and talking and one I particularly like is the New Yorker Fiction Podcast - where authors read out other author's short stories, and it's soothing and there are some EXCELLENT stories, like Shirley Jackson's The Lottery.

Because all I've been doing lately is playing Left 4 Dead (no really, it's ALL I've been doing) and talking about zombies, I'm sure you guys would appreciate as much as me this awesome post on i09.com from last year about Zombie Feminism. As if you even need any more convincing to read it than the title. ZOMBIE FEMINISM.

Speaking of Left 4 Dead, I hate vans.

One for the poorer among us, CookingByNumbers.com is a site where you put a tick in the boxes next to everything you have in your cupboard and it gives you a recipe.

Aaand Cooking Conversions, for when you get recipes given to you with annoying imperial measurements.

I went to a mini twitter meetup on Sunday afternoon at the Fox Hotel for $2 steaks and here's a little flickr photoset to show you just how annoying I can be with a camera.

OMGBREAKINGNEWS I'm talking to my brother on MSN right now and he just sent me this link and HOLYSHIT: Beard.

I will try to write more. I've been trying to do other things more, like read and draw and play video games, so it takes my mind away from my blog. So keep reading, and sending your love down that well.
