Going Digital

Off

Installed a new digital thermostat this morning. I figured it might end up saving me energy in the long run (well, R pays the utilities, so saving her some money) so I took the 10 minutes to pull the old one off and replace it with this shiny new plastic thing. It’s the same interface as the one in my parents’ home, so I know I’ll be able to program it.
I was doing some more work in the garage loft. I’ve been able to lay down some more sheets of plywood floor, but around 8pm I became a little self-conscious about the noise I was making. I suppose we’re finally seeing the end of summer, since it gets dark so much sooner. I’ll try to get in a little more tonight, and hopefully I’ll have a nice platform from which to insulate the roof.
That reminds me, I need to order that door and window from Home Despot. Takes 3 weeks for delivery.

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.
