if you're not a penguin...shut it - Floating My OWN Boat v.2

This is Jen.

Except not *that* Jen.

It's Jen, also with a message from the Captain of this here boat. See? Seems there was this thing? And then this other thing? Followed by a little surgery, which could lead to a whole new Jen who looks a wee bit less like her brother in that photo down there.

She's okay. That's the important message, from her to you.

Another thing is...she's got her Mom with her and is bound and determined the rest of her family not hear any news that may rock their boats, however temporarily. So if you're reading this, and you know people who love her, then please? OK? She'd rather talk to them herself than have them hear something, about a thing, and stuff, through a blogvine.

She's okay. Sounds weary of the company she's keeping, and anxious to get home. She's without internet access. You might imagine her hosts and hostesses are feeling not much love from our girl at the moment. But the really good news is that she'll be out of their clutches and back on board soon. Maybe even by the weekend.

In the meantime, send her lots of mental hugs and virtual tequila.

And, oh by the way? Do you have any idea how fucking intimidating it is to be posting ON THIS WOMAN'S BLOG?? Sheesh.

Thank you, and good night.
