We matched on Bumble in early 2019. Eric's bio said "I miss my Zune", which attracted Dana, who also missed her Zune. They chatted for a bit, and then Eric told Dana he was from Nebraska and she immediately ghosted him. We matched again in November 2021 when Dana paid for a premium subscription to see which freaks liked her, one of them being Eric. She swiped right and Eric realized they had matched and talked before. We met for drinks at Bar Flores and had a late night breakfast at The Brite Spot (RIP). The rest was history.
Dana's photo was of her in a bikini balancing a pbr on her head. Eric does not remember what her bio said. Eric's photo was of him at a Die Hard themed Christmas party.
We initially connected over our shared love of the Microsoft Zune, 2000s indie music, politics, and going on the internet.
To quote Wild At Heart, it's a symbol of individuality and my belief in personal freedom. The Microsoft Zune was an MP3 player on the market from 2006-2012. Dana owned a pink 4GB and Eric owned a brown 30GB, Zune 80, AND a Zune HD
