Job Stuff, + mostly
I got a second job working as a behavior therapist. I'm excited, but also wary.
The commute means I'll be away from home for ~ 14 hours each weekday.
Even if I worked closer to home, I would be out of the house for ~ 12 hours 5 days a week.
Hopefully I'll survive this schedule until summer break, at which point I can reassess and decide how much work I can handle.
Until then I have to do highly scheduled self-care. Which is tough with depression, But.
It was taking me too long to finish the regular tarot deck, so I made finished a cutesy little one in the meantime. All the suites, all the Major Arcana. Apparently a nice way to combat project fatigue is to double your workload. 😓

742. I wrote some garbage, deleted it, and wrote about an unlikely pair of Alicia's instead.
@serval Wow, haven't seen you online in a while! Haroo!
friendly reminder to wrap your heavily political posts inside CW tags.
some people here (including me) abandoned birdsite for the purpose of avoiding the worsening Political Discourse there for the sake of their own mental wellbeing.
seeing all of it again around on mastodon doesn't help them at all, and pretty much the reason social media slowly fatigues me
Hey I'm Sparrow~
I'm 26 and a recent college graduate with degrees in anthropology & psychology. I'm bi (I like ladies & non-binary folks) and ID as non-binary. I use they/them pronouns.
I currently work as a paraeducator in an elementary school setting. I'm hoping to get a second job as a behavior therapist soon.
Other stuff: I like weird art, playing DnD with my pals, reading (especially horror), & enjoying nature/wildlife.
I have a video interview scheduled for this Tuesday with the behavior therapy group I'm interested in joining.
I'm nervous! But! I'll probably be okay.
One nice thing: The clinical director of the East Bay office mentions having a wife in her public bio. So hopefully it'll be a place I can be openly queer.
