No, I'm not short bonds. :) I'm long invested in short dated bonds, meaning my average duration on my bond holdings is around 3-4 years. Longer dated bonds in the 10, 20, 30 year range will be very volatile. You could earn more on those, but they can also be very risky. Short dated or low duration bonds are more cash like. Since the yield curve is almost flat, I don't believe I get compensated enough for holding longer duration bonds. So I like to hold shorter duration bonds.
