Jen Discontinues the Self-Censorship

I have stated before that I write this blog partly because it is shameless self-indulgence, and partly to keep my family and friends back home abreast of my goings on while I live abroad.  I have considered the fact that my grandparents, former teachers, former coworkers and bosses, younger, impressionable siblings, people I used to go to church with, my students and also anyone else with access to the internet could possibly read what I write here on my blog.  And because of this, I have censored my language out of respect for those facts.

Well, I have made the decision to censor no more.  I am who I am.  Sometimes I use cuss words to add hilarity to my stories and my life.  And sometimes I have to leave out funny parts of stories here in order to keep up this ruse that I am a classy lady through whose lips such trash would never pass.  Well, that's bullsh.  And I'm not going to do it anymore.  Anyone who has spent more than 5 minutes around me knows my affinity for 4-letter words.

So I apologize to anyone who finds such language offensive.  You have every right not to read my blog.  Plus there's like a 98% chance only my parents read it anyway, and they already know my heathenish ways.  I promise I won't overdo it with the curse words, but I'm through trying to find euphemisms that don't make me sound like Ned Flanders.

I already feel less repressed by this decision.  Damn, it feels good to be a gangster.
