(no subject)

So... since I haven't been posting in forever, and no one probably reads my journal anymore, here's what you need to know since I last posted anything with content:

  • I moved in with my girlfriend. We have a dog, a cat, and are planning on getting married or eloping sooner rather than later.
  • I got a job working in a prison as a substance abuse counselor. I had a crazy boss, and worked with a lot of black girls. I met a lot of interesting, talented, clients. I was there for 14 months.
  • I left that job for a lot of reasons. One of them being crazy boss.
  • I'm currently working at a community mental health clinic that services a lot of poor and disabled folk. I know a lot about foodstamps, SSI, TCA, and the clustercuss that is our disability system now.


I say all that to say this: I'm gonna be writing about work sometimes from now on. No names. No faces. The work stuff is mostly to keep me from burning out. That said, here goes.

Interview

Test: Get.
License: Get.
Interview: Get!

Yeah, I have an interview at Baltimore Behavioral Health this Friday at noon. I am equal parts Squee and freaking out at this prospect. And not quite sure what to where but I have a suit so that's an option. I knew that Gregory Edgeworth cosplay would come in handy for something.

So maybe the next step after this is Job: Get?

Wish me luck guys. I'll need it. >.>

Test results!

This must be said.

I PASSED!!!

Passing score was a 99 out of 160.

I? Got 124. Out of 160.

No, I do not apologize for the huge, pretentious sparkle text. Deal with it. XD

ZOMG

So as many of you know, I want to be a counselor.

I finally scheduled my test date.

July 6, 2009. 1:30 PM.

June just plum wasn't available. (Considering June starts in 2 days this was not surprising. I was just surprised someone answered the phone today)

*fingers crossed*

Pray (or hope if you're not into that praying stuff) for me guys. I'm gonna need it.
