Offices of Patent Legal Advisors, Petitions, Patent Cooperation Treaty Legal, and also support Patent Reexamination. I am their "technomage," running interference with the IT folks, developing new and better ways of doing things, and giving life to their statistics.
Have two sons, both in college and determined to be independent; youngest is violinist (was concertmaster in 3 orchestras his senior year). He has a side business - Arco Dynamico, performing for weddings and events with a former teacher. I spend a lot of time in my car getting him to and from rehearsals, lessons, concerts, and competitions.
Have 4 talkative parrots (Goffin cockatoo, black lory, and 2 green-cheeked conures) and 4 cats - a fat pink tiger, a black & tan tiger, the Himalayan from hell, and a Russian blue who thinks she's a dog.
Still sing (do National Anthem a lot) and still do a lot of artwork - mostly computer graphics lately.
