Personal:
Dr. Irene is 57, (happily) married and lives in the mountains of Western
North Carolina with her husband
and their 4 kitties. The Pumkin (an orange alley cat), Tuffy (an orange
feral cat), and Moxie (a black feral), and Sassafras (a black and white feral). A one-time illustrator, her
interests include feral kitties, gaming, interior design, & her husband's
model trains.
She does the train scenery and some electronics, which invariably short-circuit. She is a self-taught computer whiz;
is a great cook - on a perpetual diet that never works, and grudgingly finds almost
enough time for exercise. She is neither modest nor untruthful.
