    Nice twist on the zombie theme. Interesting to have the zombie yearn for its original self.

    Interesting. I never thought I’d read such an existential piece from a zombie’s POV .

    Can’t believe I missed this one way back when. Nice job providing an inventive perspective and idea for the motivation behind brain-eating. Cool stuff.

    I just have to wonder if this zombie was ever actually married…I mean how can he trust his corrupt apparatus to emotionally invest in the concept of his former spouse. After the next brain perhaps he combs the city in search of the corvette he had while alive, never knowing he just WANTED the corvette and never actually got it. Really this is the same kind of rationalization that drug addicts use, the jusy one more hit mentality. All in all a great , provocative story.

    And I forgot to mention that I love it when people bring back ficlets that are 3 months old. That is just… fantastic.
