Writer's Block: Be Prepared

Yes! Yes I do! Not hurricanes, since I live in Pennsylvania. But having grown up in Missouri, I was prepared for tornadoes and earthquakes. These precautions transfer well to zombie preparedness.
*I have saved up a month's worth of all my prescriptions. (The pharmacy will refill two or three days before you run out. Refill as early as you can and save those last few pills each month.)
*I stockpile water in used juice bottles. I even change it out every year or so! I should do that more often. Some plastics leach into the water. Same with canned foods. Make sure you switch out your stockpile before it expires!
*I do still need a NOAA weather radio, but I have lots of first aid supplies, all the time. =)
*Every time I walk through campus, I check buildings out for zombie safety. My building, for example, isn't that great. My old lab would be great, as it has no windows and thick locked doors. But there is no food there! There is a flat roof for good gardening, if the zombie threat becomes long-term.
*I never get caught out without shoes I can run in.
