ABOUT ERIC |
||
In retrospect, if I had to do it over again, I’d be more considerate of my parents and let them sleep. |
||
I was a happy kid. Despite the tremendous inconvenience I caused when born, as a baby/child/pre-adolescent I was jolly and generally found it easy to enjoy myself. My parents don’t remember me crying that much as a baby, or whining or sulking in the subsequent years. I was jealous of the cool toys the other kids in the neighborhood seemed to possess, but I don’t remember this causing me too much trauma. For the most part, I was happy just to be there. Some of my favorite memories involve running around the woods in this picture, pretending to fight the Wehrmacht with my friends. Most pictures of me before age 14 or so show a smiling or laughing child. |
||
Along the way, I worked at more than a few interesting jobs, traveled more than necessary, started writing screenplays, bought a nice apartment and got married. Prague is where I gained raw experience about the world and where I grew up. |
||
As I said, I'm a curious type and I have lots of interests. Playing bass guitar like in the picture, for example. Writing. Investing in stocks when I have the money and they aren't f@#&ing tanking. Hiking the local mountains (there are many around here). And watching movies, of course. |
