Valerie Fasimpaur has been employed in the mainframe information systems field, completely unintentionally, for over 15 years. Her two sons, three cats and two dogs devour the rest of her time. She is a perpetual college student and enjoys attending classes with "traditional" (read: decades younger than she) students who will soon graduate and earn five times more than she did at their age. Valerie was shamed into writing by the accomplishments of her irritatingly talented and much younger siblings, including one who also serves on the Rambles staff.
