Chapter 1.2

To facilitate living so far from where I worked it became necessary to purchase a car. As luck would have it, Jon had a spare sporty thing just waiting for me to swoop in and buy. For people how have seen my DVD collection and realize that I own the new "Italian Job" it's perhaps not too surprising that I like driving quick little cars faster than is strictly legal and that my turns are rather sharper than necessary. So it will be unsurprising when I describe the car as a sliver 2-door with rims and darkly tinted front windows that rode only a couple of inches off the asphalt. Jon and I affectionately called it the go-cart because you really did feel as though you were in nothing more than a turbo-charged cart just built for those drive-under-the-semi-stunts.

Woo-hoo! The story of Val's life!

I can just picture you in this "sliver car" of yours!

Leaving out a few details and going in reverse order really gets confusing for your old dad.

Don't worry dad, I'll get back into order with chapter two... so much has happened, I accidentally started writing it in the wrong order.

Just start reading them in chapter order, not how they appear on the page.

I've seen it all but I like reading about it all too.
