You have no idea what challenges today may bring, but you want to start off with a healthy breakfast. You cut and peel vegetables and find some just-ripe fruit to add to the meal. Since the stove works, you scramble some eggs and add herbs to bring out the flavor. You carry a full plate of food to the table.

As you sit at the kitchen table eating the abundant breakfast, you mostly feel…

All you care about is your own survival, and no one will stand in your way. You don't care about higher purposes or saving the world. If you need something, you'll take it, and if someone gets in your way, you'll take what they have, too. You didn't ask to be thrown into this mess called the apocalypse, but you're going to take advantage of the changing landscape of civilization.

After breakfast, you spend a short while clearing the table, cleaning the pots and dishes, and washing the stove and sink. After finishing in the kitchen, you head to the living room. You hear the unmistakable noise of the garbage truck passing your house. You doubt the sanitation department is still servicing the area, so why is it driving through your neighborhood?
