Adventures in Murkland Post Apocalyptic

So I was minding my own and tending to my plants when who should appear. Vlad Dracula. Lovely, he better not even think about trying to drink from me or he will regret it! He must be a master being out in the sun like that. This really has been a weird week that's for sure.

I am a nice person and pretty much get along with everyone. Except one. Wolfgang! He is so mean and irritating. I know Derrick has told me to ignore him but when he is at the gym 24/7 that can make it a bit tough. Hopefully I wont be here for much longer so I can get away from him.

Not a whole lot to report today. Same thing day in and day out. Get up, tend to my plants, eat. Once a week play for tips, everyday sell remedies for stinky people and cook them and try to not get caught by the mayor. Oh yea and sleep. With how many people are buying the remedies I wonder how many report to the Mayor on my doings around Murkland.

Well we had a date and a dance battle now let's play the violin for him. He stuck around for a while before having to leave. Murk love him but he was getting a bit ripe. It was fun though having him around for more then a few hours.

I am not sure if he let me win but he sure did seem to be impressed with my new dancing skills. Hopefully when we are under one roof we can put them to good use instead of me dancing around a fire by my self. It defiantly was fun having a little dance battle with my boyfriend.

So before the apocalypse I could not dance to save my life so now that I can I challenged Derrick to a dance battle. He did laugh mostly because the last time we tried dancing it did not go well. Honey, sorry to bust your hot little bubble. But! I have some moves! 

So I was right! Derrick is still here and wanted to dance. It was slow going at first. We had been away from each other for a while and now getting back into a routine and not being nervous around each other. I may try to get him in a dance battle and see what happens. I love my man!

I have been at this table all day selling my remedies. Had a great time with Derrick again. Who knows if he went home or if he stuck around. I would not mind if he did stay for a while. Either way working on my goal to get to the next step of the Mayors quest to become a permanent resident.

Well the day after our date I spent a good part of the day making my remedies and as I was walking through the gym who do I see? Derrick. He apparently followed me back to the gym after our date. I do not mind at all. Gives us more time together. Kinda hot watching him doing push ups. Before the world went to murk in a hand basket I could sit and watch him work out for hours. Date ✔ Got him back to the gym✔ Now to get his shirt off. That may take some work if you know what I mean.

One of the side affects of the Apocalypse is earthquakes. It is an everyday thing and can be rather nauseating. I hope some day they will stop. It would be nice to have days when you can sleep through the night or work during the day with out having a quake hit.

For the first time in a while I managed to get through a day with out falling asleep in strange places. It felt good sleeping in my sleeping bag and not face first in where ever I happened to be at the time.

After our date I thought that Derrick went home but apparently I was wrong. He showed up this morning at the gym and hung out with me all day even though I was dirty trying to sell remedies to make up for the money I lost to bills.

With me being back in Murkland Derrick asked me out to the Puffer Dome. Instead of eating with just chatted and watched the clouds go by. This apocalypse could be a good thing. People are not so worried about their phones and the hustle and bustle of life. People can take time to just be with each other. I like this better.

The Mayor came by today. Apparently he got wind of someone selling remedies so I managed to sneak away and it looks like I am cooking a meal for my self. I sure do hope he does not come over here asking what I am doing. If he does hopefully he wont know the smells of the remedies and catch me. Fingers, eyes, toes, arms, legs crossed!

So I got home from Granite Falls only to find out I had bills that were 23,000 and change! There goes most my money but it gives me a chance to get it back by selling my remedies and playing my violin once a week. I am getting closer to my goal to move on to the next part. I still have my plants I need to become perfect. I am also still eating trash fruit which still doesn't taste any better then it did the first time I had it.

Finally, it takes for ever to find these things. I swear it seems like all I ever do is run around the dang forest looking for them when I only find them in one spot now. Now I have a total of twenty I can go home now and start working on my remedies again. Oh and see Derrick again.💖

As I was eating a few campers showed up to sit around the camp fire. It was nice to have someone to talk to other then bears and plants. She said her name was Penny. She was pretty nice. Seemed a bit to dressed up for the woods. Then again look at me I don't even have shoes on. Perhaps I will find a pair that fits me some time.

Another quiet night after a long day of hunting down dragonflies and talking to bears. Derrick will get a kick out of it when I tell him I talked to a bear and plants. Dinner is nothing but some hot dogs cooked over an open fire. I swear if I did not have to cook right now I could just stare at the flames until it died down.

So I ran into that annoying bear again. This time while I was eating a meal. Turns out the bear was not to bad. It was rather friendly and not annoying. Perhaps it was a different bear I saw last time.  either way it was a nice chat. I know this entry is a bit boring but there is not much to talk about. Chatting with bears and looking for dragonfly's.

Back to the woods hey hey! To skip and frolic along the way! I did find a half dead plant which I watered and talked to. Hopefully next time I see it the plant will have gotten some of its color back. But for now firefly hunting and on the look out for a hottie named Derrick. I know I sound like the stalker girlfriend. I promise I am not. :)

I am starting to run low on dragonfly's so that means another trip to Granite Falls to collect more. I do dread going to catch them as you can only find them twice a day! Hopefully I will get to see Derrick when I get back or who knows maybe while I am there.

Well I got tired of selling stuff so I decided to busk for tips! As you can see only one got into the performance but it is a violin so I wont hold a grudge against Don. Turns out you can make some good money doing this on the side.

Finally we were able to set a day to have our first date since the apocalypse! He chose the Puffer Dome but I have heard people die here so maybe just chat and drink water. But we will see what happens.

I have been at this table for ages! I did take breaks for bathroom and food but apparently I forgot to take a nap sooo I crashed right there next to my tent! Oh well, not the first time this has happened but the first time it has happened at the gym.

Finally home from Granite Falls and made a bunch of remedies so now it is time to sell them. When I run out I will play for tips to help out.

So while I was fishing the one thing I caught was a shower. I have to hide it so others wont steal the water since we are in short supply of it. It was so nice to get a shower. I have not had one in so long!

As wonderful as it was to find Derrick again I had to say goodbye explaining that I was trying to make my residency in Murkland permanent. Oddly enough Derrick understood and was fine with it. So back to the gym I go to make some energize remedies along with the deodorant cream. Murk lord knows most the town needs that with how bad it smells around here. Can't wait to get this part done and spend time with Derrick.
