Under the Furious

Visited my mom today, and gave her some birthday presents. I also introduced her to catnip tea, although it did take some arm-twisting to do it… Made the mistake of bringing her some port wine as a present, since she’s on a strict anti-tannins diet (??). I think it’s that the tannins are interfering with her medications, so she’s off tea, wine, etc.
Once that was finished, I hung out with the Leader — we went to Under the Volcano for some Mexican food, and then checked out "The Fast and the Furious". Pretty neat movie, a real draw for car enthusiasts. It was neat when all the Honda Civics got destroyed, but we all shed a silent tear when the Jetta got shot up. One thing though: It was very difficult to obey local speed limits after the film, and I found myself revving the engine at red lights, trying to provoke the other drivers.

About This Site

As a guy who occasionally curates art shows and wrangles artists together, I often have to edit and post artist bios, profile pictures, and artwork images. This can be a problem, since many artists and writers aren’t used to selling themselves. Artists rarely know how to present their art for display in a brochure, and writers aren’t used to writing about themselves.

Writers often treat the bio like it’s an interview or something. Maybe like they’re having a conversation with you, the reader. While it may work sometimes, the most common way to write a bio is to write in the 3rd person.

I’m like those writers, and I’m talking to you directly, unlike the common way to do a bio. You should see my About page. It makes sense to me, since this is a bit which describes my blog’s website. When I get famous enough that I don’t have time to talk to you, I’ll have an intern write everything in 3rd person. Until then, you get to talk to me.

Like blogs of old, this one is a personal document of the comings and goings of me. Articles I’ve written, links I’ve posted, videos I liked, etc. Here, a first-person perspective is the way to go, at least for now. So, this is my site. I’m D. H. McKee, a sometimes artist, sometimes writer. Mostly just a guy on the internet.
