| Since
then:
We left Japan immediately after
graduating from ASIJ in 1961, and found ourselves
next in Djakarta, Indonesia. I lived there with my family
for a while, then visited on vacations while I went to the
U. of Western Australia in Perth. Next I found myself in
New York City at Katharine Gibbs Secretarial School. I was
able to escape NYC by moving to Southern California in
1965, wherein my real life began and I have stayed ever
since.
My incarnations include techie in the
music studios in Hollywood for five years; legal
secretary; and computer programmer (beginning on
mainframes, no less). I worked for Wang Laboratories as a
System Consultant for 11 years, then private contractor
for a few more.
Meanwhile, I was married in 1975 to a
fabulous guy, and we had a wonderful life together (no
kids); he died in 1996. In 1997 I was introduced to my
current sweetheart and husband, and in 1998 we were
married. We are retired together and living happily ever
after in Westlake Village, CA.
