A Moment's Rest!

The family seems to have disappeared for a few hours.  I don't know where they went, but they dressed up and left me alone in the house for a long period of time.  I will take this opportunity to explain the situation in which I find myself.

That Old Woman obtained me when I was only a few months old and I have lived on or near her tele ever since.  Her and her friends have put me through a lot!  I've been kidnapped and packed in boxes and had my beak puffed up to look like I was a snoody little brat countless times!  Besides, I'm allergic to all the cleaning products she uses.

As time went on, she obtained more and more of my kind.  At least, most of them were my kind.  Some were bizarre mockeries.  Those were hard and shiny and sometimes she would stick things in them.  We began to form a coalition -- the Party for Penguin Independence.  I became the official spokesperson.  And so when the opportunity came to escape and attempt to find help in the outside world, I took it!

And this is how I got to where I am currently.
