Opening Disclaimer

I have been told, from time to time, that I exaggerate. I also “remember things out of context”, ‘lie’ and “make shit up like crazy”. Don’t worry- I am a writer! So this is all part of my joy loving, colorful, it-could-have-happened-that-way-so-let’s-just-say-it-did creative nonfiction way of being. But just in case anybody wants to fight about it, I am warning you right now. I might be lying. And if you ask my family and friends they will definitely remember it all a completely different way.
