What not to do when the dead rise

I live in a daylight basement, with big windows, so my plan is to get out of the house as fast as possible. There's a big gun store that looks very easily defendable about 2 blocks from my house that I could get to pretty quick, as there are no graveyards near me.

Although, I really don't think that I would survive a zombie attack, I think that I would be the tough chick that pulls everybody else together and knows what to do, that gets killed in the third act saving everybody else.
