I would be remiss if I didn't acknowledge my dearest of friends, Mrs. Becka Burke, for her part to play in this blog. As I slink behind in the dark ages, informed of the latest trends of 1997, it is she who continues to bring me up to speed. She has opened my eyes to the world of Pottery Barn and Anthropologie, Gmail and Facebook, "Wicked" and, most importantly, eyebrow waxing (although the current state of my eyebrows would suggest otherwise). Three years ago she began encouraging me to blog, probably so that her inbox would not be inundated with my latest irrelevant musings. =) I have toyed with the idea ever since and impetuously started yesterday.
Thank you, dear Becka, for your constant vote of confidence in all things, including this. I love you! And prepare yourself for strawberry shortcake in June!!!!

A Total Lemming
Why blog? Everyone else is.
I need the D.A.R.E. program for the Internet. Being a follower is what brought me to a Gmail account and online chatting as well as Facebook. And here I am, having noticed that four of my friends have started blogs in the last four months, beginning a blog. I will take the opportunity of congratulating myself on not pursuing Farmtown, however. I guess I have limits on the peer pressure I cave into.
Will I seize this opportunity to delve deeply within? To display my culinary prowess? Will I be the next Julie Julia? I sit here envisioning the opening scene of my movie, Dana DeVries being played by one Cameron Manheim, typing away something fantastic. I suppose I should write a better first entry if this is going to read by a voice-over as the pretend Dana types furiously with "This is How We Do It" playing in the background. Alas, this blog will probably be an insipid exercise in megalomania with no prospect of feature film red carpet grandeur. Simply day-to-day Dane.
