Bunker: Day 9

Day Nine. One more day until VACATION time is upon us. HUZZAH! Wonder what I’m going to do? I’m in the middle of a meeting today, and someone says, "don’t forget to stay home next week — you’re on vacation." I almost forgot about it. I’ve even got a tent set up here (like this place isn’t small as it is). How do you forget a vacation when you’ve got a friggin tent set up?

With all that’s going on outside, the internet connection’s been up and down all week. There’s that horrible plague of Nimda (formerly Code Blue) worms, not to mention all the civil unrest, and financial uncertainty. I’ve heard that even the new Spiderman movie was pulled for reshooting (the trailer had him catching a helicopter in a web strung between the two Trade Center towers), and so was that new Schwarzenegger flick (Predator 3?).

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.
