So multiple health issues have kept me out of commission since September. I have been working at the part time teaching thing, but not much else. Still trying to do school, but had to drop some classes. I really want to make jewelry and things, but do not have the energy for anything.
Decorated Azarath's house for Halloween.
So I will be applying for a Master's program in instructional design to give me more options for teaching in other contexts. I would love to make teaching a full time thing somehow.
Last week I interviewed at a local college for an adjunct position teaching new veterinary technicians. Today they called and offered me the job. I'm hoping I can do part time at current job and this job and then eventually not have to.wotk at my current job.
Just a check to see who would be interested in classes on pet first aid if I started teaching them?
Basically telling them what to use to calculate doses in cases of dogs or cats eating chocolate. Differential amounts are treated differently 😊
Thinking of doing chocolate calculations for my interview class. Discussions with housemates have also suggested other educational things at places like community centers. I can do jewelry, chainmail, world music, and maybe pet first aid. Would people be interested in those?
Reached out to former coworkers and they agreed to be references if necessary. I was told I would be great at that type of job. Hopefully the interviewers agree. #smallsteps
Never heard back from one job, which is disappointing but is what it is. Did hear from another job I applied to as an adjunct veterinary technician instructor, and have an interview for that on 1/30, so we'll see how that goes. Cross the crossables, please. #jobhunting

Tomorrow, Kamala Harris will stand on a dais with the man who beat her. Black women have been the organizing force for the Democratic Party, it has not done a great job elevating them to office. This was my favorite piece I wrote last year.

Crowdsourcing: 46 year old queer with disabilities. Formerly a music/ethnomusicologist person, now a vet tech. Need something due to burnout. Looking for ideas. Would prefer not to do more schooling, but not against certifications.
I just received notice that I was accepted for a vet tech scholarship that gives me some CE and lets me add some shininess to my CV. So that was a good thing to find out.
Applied for a job doing teacher training for educational software. They called me today to talk about the position. I called back, but got their voice mail. I'll call again tomorrow. Cross the crossables, please.
Does non-binary count?
A grey and white cat is sitting with her rear legs splayed out and her belly facing the camera. Her grey and darker grey striped tail is sticking out from between in her legs. Her eyes are half closed. She is in a black and white chair.

A red and cream hognose snake on some soil and green sphagnum moss. There is a cactus shaped hide behind the snake, a shiny basking rock to one side, and a piece of wood in front of the snake. He appears to be looking at the camera.
Here is a picture of a cute hognose snake. His name is Azarath. #westernhognose #snek
Applied for a new job and some Calbright courses to give me some more options. Starting a 60 day Spanish course to try and get better at that language. #options #education #adultlearner
So I may have started talking about unionizing while at work yesterday. Still being relatively sneaky in order to not alert management. #unions
