My Name Is Eric and I'm an Infoholic

I can hear the chorus of people responding to the title with "Hi Eric."

I can't help myself. Newspapers, magazines, websites, tv news, I'm addicted to information. If I don't know what's going on in the world, I start to go through withdrawal. But like any other addiction, it gets to be too much. My head feels like it's going to explode with absolutely useless information.

At it's worst, I can't focus on one thing at a time. I must multitask. I'm bombarded and suffer from information overload, and still I can't help but check the latest headlines.

I think I need a few hours in a sensory deprivation tank to regain my sanity.

A Change Of Pace

Now that this blog has moved to become part of my personal website, I felt it was appropriate to change the focus, somewhat. While I will still rant about issues that annoy me, I will also be including more creative pieces and musings about everyday life.

In other words, this personal blog will become more personal. It will still reflect the issues that I cover elsewhere (and as I do more of those I'll provide links to them), but it will also include pieces that really don't fit anywhere else.

I hope that you will join me on this new leg of our journey. It promises to be an interesting ride.
