Big move tomorrow

Big move tomorrow. Gotta plan for it. Our department’s moving into some new digs, and I’m in charge of moving our computer lab over to the new spot. It shouldn’t be too hard, since there’s only a couple of mission-critical machines, and likely they won’t be down for too long.
One thing that’s discouraging is my NetWare boxes will have to come down, and they’re currently working on an uptime record. They’re currently at 97 days. Heh. Not much of a record, but there was a power failure. Prior to that, the machines were up for almost 10 months. But now I gotta start all over again. This time, I’m going to ask for a UPS, so I can move them around without unplugging.

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.
