Jenny made her mind up when she was three

It's my birthday! I was born three years ago when this redhead became intrigued in a blog by her friend Devon was writing. Lynette (my author) decided to "give it a go" and thus was I born.

She has made me amusing. Boring. Depressing. Joyful. Excited. Sad. Mad. And she has allowed me to pretty much replace her regular journals (for she had more than one). Not bad for a three year old.

I look to the future. I see shows, grad school, teaching, friends, frustrations . . . all within the next year. As Bette Davis claimed in All About Eve, "Fasten your seatbelts; it's going to be a bumpy night."

Oh, and Lynette also wanted me to throw a congratulations to her cousin Shane and his wife Toni. As of today, they are parents of Dannon Kedrick Destiny Smith. A boy has really got to live up to a name like that!!!

The title comes from a song called "The Saga of Jenny" which Julie Andrews sang in the film Star! The song is older than that, but poor Lynette is not near her resource which would tell her the title of the show (though it's from the first half of the 20th Century) it was originally from. She used it because the word "three" is used in reference to an age.
