So this past weekend we got some snow.
Strike that.
Lots of snow.
These posts are personal thoughts and insights from Eric Dye.
Overwhelmed
A few years ago I had shut down my old blog.
Thankfully, I saved the posts and have slowly been resurrecting some of them.
I’ve published the posts worth keeping on ChurchMag and here as well. Some I’ve rewritten, others have been copy and paste, but this one needs to be set into context and left unedited.
After living in Italy for over five years now, it’s an interesting retrospect for me:
Captain Zoom Sings, “Hey, Eric, It’s Your Birthday!”
When I turned five years old my Grandma and Grandpa mailed me a personalized birthday song.
It was Captain Zoom, the song came on a vinyl record and it went something like this (replace “Big Guy” with your own name):
She Drew Her Favorite Thing
Working from home has its advantages and disadvantages.
(Many of which I am sure will become excellent fodder for future posts.)
Recently I left my desk and headed into the kitchen for a refill of some kind.
Love Is Different Than You Think
Today marks seventeen years.
Seventeen years of marriage to the most awesome person that has ever graced my life.
Seventeen years of love.
Seventeen years of hate.
Seventeen years of hurt.
Seventeen years of healing.
If there is anything that I have learned in these past seventeen years, it is this:
New Year Newness

Hello, 2015. 🙂
I wanted to write this yesterday — makes sense right? — but today is better than never.
That’s the latest New Year advice my wife gave me.
Your Kids Don’t Need…
It turns out that having a personal blog is going to take more brain power than I first realized.
But it’s all good.
I’ve been thinking all week about what to post about. With Christmas this week — tomorrow — I figured I would write a little something with a holiday slant.
I kicked several ideas around in my head, but most of them ended up in my mental wastebasket for various reasons.
With Christmas upon us, a lot of focus and pressure is placed on gifts, I am reminded of something I learned in my Family Communications class in college:
My Latest Game Crush: Borderlands 2
In an effort to share some of my ‘guilty pleasures,’ I must admit that my latest ‘game crush’ is Borderlands 2.
I snagged it on the latest round of Steam deals at 75% off for my iMac.
I love it when that happens. 😀
Hello World
It’s the classic ‘first blog post.’
It’s the default blog post that comes bundled with WordPress and its roots go much, much further in the tech world.
So, it only seems appropriate to kick things off in the same manner.
