Dairy, Zombies and The Dark Tower

Well well well, so much for keeping up on this baby blog, little Neco!

But as you know, I've been feeling a little icky. And a couple trips to the er have not helped!
What's wrong you ask? I may have developed an adult onselt allergy to dairy of all things! Yes that means milk, cheese, butter.. mmhmm... you have the idea. So while i wait to meet with the allergist to get this all straightened out I get to take ALL dairy out of my diet. ALL. Do you know what that means? I can live without the butter for a couple weeks. I can even live without the cheese, and milk and miscellaneous items (you would be shocked at some of the things that contain milk, Neco!) but the thing that is KILLING me my dear cyber friend, is chocolate. Let me give you a minute so you can fully appreciate that. I have to avoid eating chocolate for the next 2 weeks. That's like someone telling me my eyes were suddenly allergic to reading, and I would have to stop looking at words! The horror! **sigh** It's only 2 weeks, right? (no, don't remind me that I may actually be allergic to dairy and have to avoid it for life!!! Fiddle dee dee, Neco, fiddle dee!)

Random thought, do you know who doesn't have to worry about dairy allergies? Zombies! On the other hand, I guess they don't have a hankering for cheese all that much, do they? I wonder what zombies are allergic to? There's a story idea in there somewhere.

So, onto something else that's kind of a big deal. My favorite book series of all time, by my favorite author of all time, The Dark Tower by Stephen King will soon be made into a trilogy and TV series. For full details, read http://http//www.stephenking.com/promo/dark_tower_film_and_tv/news_tracker/.
I'm a little giddy! Ok, ok, I'm a lot giddy! Already the haters have come out to protest, but I have no doubt this will be epic! The big question of course, who will play Roland? My dream cast has changed over the years. I'll have to think on it. But I would love to see Viggo Mortensen in the role. To me, he is the obvious choice. I am going to have to dedicate an entire post to a dream cast. What fun that will be, eh Neco?
I think I will do that for next week's post then. Maybe put up a poll as well.

What if zombies had an allergic reaction to low IQs? high IQs?
