Random Scan 6

I met Jen in a bar...

I was pretty loaded, but somehow I got her interested in me. So interested, she would come over after work to watch me weld and work on my motorcycle trailer. 2001 was going to be the year I got real serious with motorcycle racing. I had some championships to chase and I didn't have much time or interest in a girlfriend.

Jen thought otherwise. Throughout the winter she came around to watch or help with the preparations for the race season. When the season got underway, she was still there. She would drive overnight with me to the practice days and race weekends, then drive home for work on Monday. She'd make meals or whatever else I needed, so I could focus just on racing.

The championships have come and gone, luckily Jen has not. Now I get the rest of our lives to pay her back for all that she did that year.
