GTO gas station Timmies

Off

I’m at the Timmies at the GTO station, on King and Northfield. It seemed like the only cheap lunch place where I could read and/or blog from. Since there are no newspapers (just those crappy Coffee Time newsletters), I’m blogging.
I ordered a small black coffee and an “everything” bagel with butter. Total cost: $2.10. I should have brought my own lunch, but then again, I should’ve biked to work. BTW, it’s like they dunked the bagel in butter. Dunkin’ Bagels.
I’ll probably stop by the LCBO and get a couple of wine crates — I’ll need them for the wine batch that’s being made for me. You really don’t actually make the wine at those do-it-youself places. That’s a little unfortunate, but it would certainly seem to cater to busy people who want cheap personalized wine in 4 weeks.
R’s first day of classes is today, and she seems really apprehensive about it. I would be too, and that’s why I’m not the one in the MBA program. I’ll probably do some more studio stuff tonight, until she gets home. I’ve done more work on the loft floor, and I’m almost done with the insulation. It’s at this point where I’ve really got to decide whether I want the skylight or not, though I suppose it could be done next year. Who knows, maybe ill have to redo the whole roof while I’m at it.
I am looking into getting some bright fluorescents in there. I’d like to get some recessed fixtures in place, and maybe a thin-mount single tube at the roof peak to illuminate the loft, if I need to.
Well, back to the grind.

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.
